This has got to be the epitome of survivorship bias. Wtf

Edit: I was just joking. I don't care if its actually survivor ship biased.

Seems like it to me. Nowhere it says they regretted it and still a quarter of them tried again. It makes sense that a bunch didn't because now they're getting help and support they might not have been getting before

Also death is scary even if you wanted it.

Who the fuck wants to go through all that twice?

Death is only scary if you make it so.

Like anything it’s a case of mind offer matter. Some people are just not born with a fear of the unknown.
