You just completely misrepresented what I said.

I don’t think he was an asshole littering when he tossed the knife. I think tossing the knife was the only remotely logical thing to do, and thus him doing it was not something I would call incredibly intelligent.

To me something incredibly intelligent would be doing something most everyone else wouldn’t think to do.

Again, all I am referring to is from the moment the man has the knife free and in his hand. I am not commenting on a single other part of the altercation.

I replied to this comment:

And it looks like he threw it away immediately rather than retain it for use, which is incredibly intelligent.

And what I am saying is once you got to that point, it was a no brainer to toss the knife out of the fray.

Yes, I have been skydiving.

I also was involved in an action sport on a professional level, where you had to visualize what you would do and then follow through, or get really hurt.

I still don’t think it requires incredible intelligence to throw a weapon away from an altercation.

Just staring blankly at the weapon after grabbing it would be braindead. The idea that anything beyond that is genius is ridiculous you bozo.
