It’s true, I just wonder if that has something to do with it.
I was once meandering along Yangming Shan with a friend and it was pouring down rain. Quite cold for October too. Then we came a across a clearly marked “no entry” area along a river/spring full of people hanging out, cooking food in the hot springs. Nothing was more satisfying than dipping my toes in the hot water, as I was already completely soaked. But there was still always that “what if” going in the back of my head. Clearly I survived, and the chances of being cooked alive are probably close to those of winning the mega millions or getting struck by lightning, but there’s always still that chance…
