But that's exactly it. No sane person would do that. But, to me, no sane person would freeclimb a mountain or jump from a plane either. But yet people do love the thrill and "sport"(?) Of it. I get that. But where is the comparison to seeing a lion in your scope, pull a trigger, lion dead or dead-ish if I'm a bad shooter. Serial-killer (who admittedly love killing) rarely just shoot someone from the distance. Because the thrill of the hunt is gone.
