no, but if you walk accross a busy highway slowly its your fualt.
basically the person chose to do something thats known to be very strenous for the body. he had to know there was real danger of collapsing, yet he still decided to do it. and for no real good reason, he didn't have to do it; he could have taken up other sports or activities. he forced himself beyond his limits, who else can he blame?
walking on a pavement and getting knocked down by a car a matter of you sort of have to do it and its relatively low risk. consider the differences
