I agree with some of Chris’s viewpoints. Materialism is stupid. Buying shit for the sake of acquiring shit is stupid. Not that you should never have anything sentimental, but those kinds of things are tied to people or events.
But yeah, guy kinda lost me when he decided to camp in the Alaskan bush with no survival skills, no experience dressing a carcass, no foraging skills, and very little equipment. As others pointed out, he went there to die, then changed his mind when it was too late. A rational, non-suicidal person would have spent months preparing for this outing.
Basically everyone who jumped from the Golden Gate Bridge and lived (only ~2% of jumpers) regretted doing it before they hit the water. Chris jumped from the bridge and changed his mind halfway down. Going to Alaska wasn’t some brave choice to be free. You can do that anywhere in the Lower 48. It was a cry for help masked as a revolutionary idea.

My teacher in biology back in school explained that this was due to hormones being released something something close to death something something. In essence, it was not a “choice” to regret jumping, but rather a biological response. So you would regret it wether you wanted to or not, so to say. Can’tgiveyouasourcesinceIdon’thaveone.

Can’t give you a source since I don’t have one.

I have never seen Bojack Horseman but maybe I should!
It’s gud
I think it would have been the GOAT if they ended it with the view from halfway down
Bojack dying alone after pushing away everyone in his life yet again would’ve been the perfect ending to the depression show
Idk, I really like the way it ended.
I get your point, but instead of a horrifying (but somewhat deserved ending) we got a very “real” ending.
It’s relly gud.
