Who Is Chris Mccandless An Idiot

Into The Wild
Chris McCandless was an ordinary person before he decided to make a decision that would in the end change his life drastically, people ask was he an idiot or not? I believe he was more onto the idiot side. He went to one of the best colleges in the united states and would make quite a bit of money. But no he made the decision to go into the wild. Untrained and weak he went off into the wild, no care in the world. He lasted 112 days and died of starvation but on his way he ate a poisonous plant which made him very sick, this is why when you go off into the wild you should know what your plan is and how you're going to accomplish your task/goal.
One reason i believe Chris McCandless is an idiot is because his lack of knowledge

for the wild. He gave all his money away after all his schooling just to end up dead. He more or less did nothing with his life. If he had more knowledge he could of last a bit longer. But him not giving his family/friends a heads up just makes this situation worse how do you think his family felt about this. Chris McCandless gives a symbol of recklessness, no care went into his thought process of this. I feel if he was trained on the things needed to live in the wild and let his family/friends know, he would of been more of a good symbol/person in the end. But he went out reckless and untrained and died in the end. People say he was a “Legend”, “Hero” He wasn’t. He was just another wanna be man in life.
