I now its not respectful but I have usually taken a light view of death - we all have to go oneday. Actually most Africans make many jokes about this sort of thing and find dangerous events quite funny - when it happens to someone else.

I wonder what the record for a mass free fall is.

Now, I ask you what are the chances that the bodies would have been picked up or left for lion and hyena bait ???
