I never said I wasn't responsible. I mearly stated that the reason good pilots sometimes make bad decisions (even when they're telling themselves not to do it) is because sometimes **** just happens.
No it's simply risk taking - you know you are taking a risk, have assessed it in your mind as risky but still do it anyway.
That is just dumb behaviour and you take that risk because you think you are good enough to get away with it.
Keep your ego out of the cockpit.
