First off the message within this cartoon is not about Bourdain, it is about not being afraid to try new things. We all have fears, getting over them is something we have to work through. Second, until you have gone through a family member committing suicide like my brother did, do not judge Bourdain or anyone based on what you think you would do. Depression is an illness and effects many people in different ways.
@eced52 left brain person scans cartoon, analysis it, removes the fun from the joke. It’s a CARTOON not real life.
