"Kind of a misleading title. Only 30 people out of 7000 were injured, because walking on coals isn't actually that dangerous. I don't think there's many things out there involving fire where only .5% of participants manage to burn themselves. And this is only a news story because 5 people requested medical care beyond what was already provided." True. But if you're Tony Robbin's, you reap what you sow. To see him on the receiving end of a bit of sensationalism seems fitting. I have a close friend whose employer has bought into his cult of personality in huge investments of money and time. This has left my friend to pick up the slack as a result.
