Beauty of disaster
It is probably imprudent for me to say this, but I sometimes become obsessed about airplane crashes, Learning all the process of disasters from black boxes, phones, wreckage etc. What fascinates me is that a super high-tech machine like a jumbo jet can crash onto the ground and smash into pieces at such a high speed. Strangely, I feel some beauty in it.
If one of my close people died in a plane crash, things get too personal and I would not feel that way, but from a total objective point of view, I found something beautiful in perfectly cool man-made inventions being destroyed in a second.
I wonder it's just me or it's part of human nature. If it's the latter, why do we equipped with that?

A very interesting text! I think it is part of human nature to be interested in destruction as it is our desire to know the unknown (i.e. what we will hopefully never experience). Very well written!

Thanks for the comment. It's strange how we, human beings are drawn to disasters.

I can feel it as well,whereas I prefer the moment of nuclear weapon explosion...I guess it reflects some human visual and psychological incentive. Disaster movie directors often leverage such effect to attract audience, by adding amount shot of explosion, destruction,crash,etc.
