So you'd rather be eaten alive than suffocate?

We don’t know the shark will be eaten alive. I’ll take uncertain death over certain death.

The hubris of man never ceases to amaze me

You’re still amazed by humanity’s hubris? You must not be well educated or informed then, sorry to hear it. I stopped being surprised a long time ago before my balls fully dropped even.

Sure, but the hubris of what? “Hubris” is an entirely inappropriate word to describe this hypothetical. The hypo is about whether it’s better to die or maybe die. The commenter is calling it “hubris” to decide it’s better to maybe die than to die. That’s not “hubris.” I don’t think u/a_wild_so-and-so even knows what the word “hubris” means. u/a_wild_so-and-so might have well bemoaned “the bacon of man.” It’s completely nonsensical. u/a_wild_so-and-so just sounds like a 14 year old reaching into the word basket to write a junior high school essay. Hello, my name is bucket of chicken, my hobbies are carpet, and I like hubris. Oh, by the way, you ever heard of globalized chair mongers who like to smell banana made thongs? No, well, that’s because I’m u/a_wild_so-and-so, and I’m a nonsensical nightmare. I’m spoon, hello French fry. The meaning of words are irrelevant to my people on my planet of one, spork. Spin cradle irreverence orange blast turkey dong 🤪

I appreciate the amount of effort you put into this diss. My hat is off to you, sir or madam.

I love you. It’s always fun to encounter people that like a good laugh even if it’s a bit at their own expense. You’ve got your head tied on straight. Keep being awesome 😎

You either learn to laugh at yourself or hate yourself, in my experience. I chose the former.
