I've entertained that chain enough to make my point.Interesting. Why do you want to know wut's 'going through my head'? Hmmm... tell me more.

And follow that quote back, and that quote back, then read it all in its proper context.
When you question a post that is replying to another post, then the original question of the original post, is the context in which the new answer is given.
Post chains are like conversations. One cannot take each post as an individual statement that applies in every situation everywhere. Nor can one take a sentence that relies on the logic of the previous sentence, and then use it out of the context it was written in.
You'll notice how I did err though, thanks for pointing it out. I actually used the "video" example in the previous post in the chain, not in that same post. That sometimes happens when one remembers the entire discussion, rather than a single post out of context.
I wonder what the jury is thinking now. Now that they are learning about his:
Fake ID scheme, netting them $30,000
His four DUIs
His highrange drunk dangerous driving conviction, endangering the public and his passengers
His violently kicking a police officer
On top of all the seedy, grubby recording behaviour and denigration of women on the bodybuilding forum.
Such a travesty that background and patterns of behaviour cannot be introduced in trials.
Unfortunately, we don't know her relationship history, or how she deals with abandonment.
We do know she recently climbed Q1, and skydived. It's not unreasonable to think she was confident at heights, and utterly humiliated in front of what was a growing crowd. Add some serious alcohol, and the mental and physical limitations it creates, and yes, he may have caused her to go over the edge, but by unintentionally triggering something other than fear.
Wow....Feel terrible for WW's family right now. Very sad stuff.
Now that the trial is over, is there a way to hear all the audio they played in court? Thanks!
For everyone that hasn't been able to download the Audio file - I've found this posted elsewhere and it seems to be working.

OMG, even his lawyer is an enabler! GT lives the charmed life. :lepsmilie:Lawyer explains why Gable Tostee didn't show public sympathy to Warriena Wright's family

"I will take full responsibility for Mr Tostee having not expressed any sympathy. It was purely at my advice."
They shouldn't be thinking anything of it. They did their job and found him not guilty based on the evidence presented.

In the real world, I think they will be thinking about this trial and their difficult task for a long time to come.
Less than encouraging for them to now know that he is a dangerous person.

She was screaming BEFORE the door closed. Remember that.I guess she thought screaming teriffyingly would add good measure? Why would a person who was confident at heights sound so terrified?
Here's something that may be of use for the 'Boorish Brah' creepers who lack basic commonsense:
An Incomplete Guide to Not Creeping
This is why one must not only read the post, but the post that is quoted.Here's the wrench in the works: there are actually several different people here with several viewpoints. You're not debating some hivemind. Just because I disagree with your comments doesn't mean I take on the mantle of every previous poster disagreeing with you. I'm not the Dread Pirate Roberts. So no, that context doesn't apply to my post at all. I'm talking about the things I'm talking about. Nothing more, nothing less.
That said, I do find it very difficult to tell when someone has ulterior motives and I often take their behavior at face value, which means I find it hard to discern whether someone is honestly engaging as opposed to trying to get a rise out of me. I think I've erred in my judgment in this instance.
Some theorized that he did something menacingly behind the glass to force her over the edge. Notice how she wasn't saying, "Get away from me".
Some theorized that she was in total fear for her life. Notice how when the witness tells her she can't come down that way, she doesn't reply, "He's trying to kill me".
Some theorized she was scared of what he might do next. Notice how when the witness tells her not to come down that way, she doesn't say, "He's going to kill me".
I want to go home.
Many have theorized she may have felt "imprisoned" on that balcony. It is equally plausible that being tossed on that balcony after being intimate, would make one feel "rejected".
Abandoned.
Humiliated.
That's your reaction.Also, not sure my first thought would be abandonment if someone had locked me in their home. My first thought would be "this guy is nuts, I need to get away!"
She was screaming BEFORE the door closed. Remember that.
I could well imagine when he was bringing her to the balcony, that the thought crossed her mind he may be taking her there, to chuck her off the balcony.
But when he let's her go, likely facing her as he closes the door, turns his back, and walks away... that is the turning point where what she is thinking and feeling becomes truly unknown.
They were just intimate. He just manhandled her. He tossed her outside like a dog, or like garbage.
I want to go home.
You can read 'terror' into it, but you can also read 'completely crushed'.
