In a chuted aircraft there is a way out which is being seen as very reliable so it's only natural pilots will push that bit further if they know a big mistake does not mean death!
But I still fail to see why that's apparently seen by some contributors to this thread as a bad thing in general, or in any way connected to the BRS deployment that is the subject of this thread.

I'd happily have flown in a suitable a/c in the reported weather conditions, BRS fitted or not. I suspect (but don't of course know) the pilot concerned would do the same. Thankfully, when he got into some (as yet unknown) difficulty, he had a BRS to save the day.
