Irreality ?

Oscar Prestoris , running around on false legs ( we debate ) shooting his glamorous model girlfriend ( with exploding bullets ) , next he is throwing up in a bucket in court . Doesn't feel real or sound real does it ? Too movie like by my judgement .  

A Ferry sinks drowning 200 teenagers . Horrific , but still seems like overkill in the tragedy stakes . Sounds movie like .

120 teenage girls kidnapped by Islamic extremists in Nigeria . Again way beyond the pale , this story is just plain over the top in its scale of disaster .

Last year the Boston Marathon was bombed . The culprit was hunted down live on T.V and that was movie like in an all to frightening way as well.

Mmmm. Another example I missed, the flight of the Malaysian plane  that just disappeared somewhere complete with all its passengers  on board, its tracking equipment was turned off deliberately before hand. Straight out of a movie as well ?

Im not suggesting any of the above are not true , only that times are changing and something is a miss here . There have always been disaster throughout history, but today there seems to be a new almost black humour in the details and ridiculous level of tragedy displayed here . Maybe its all a cycle though, and we are currently in the extra crazy stage of human existence...or possibly we are entering a stage when all that's left to happen in fate is the most extreme of possibilities ?
