Should there be a skydivers version of "godwins law"

Care to explain booths law #3? And what a skyhook has to do with nazi's. I'm just confused by this thread.
My wife has one and is predominately German. Oh shit that must be it. My wife's a nazi. Would explain why she wants to put "heavier doors" on the shower. Yeah that must be it.

I think what he is getting at is that in any discussion regarding a particular skydiving incident eventually someone will claim that a skyhook would have prevented the injury or fatality, in the same fashion that in a heated political debate eventually someone will call their opponent a Nazi.

With that said I have yet to hear of a fatality caused by a skyhook. But many fatalities could have been prevented with the use of a skyhook.

you are a fascist nazi!

It's getting a bit metaphysical when a topic about the notion that a post about declaring skyhooks saving lives sending a discussion thread is ended by a post about the very same. Man.. my mind is blown...
