They would not have been 'neat' if they had become an accident. The closest one I ever had that would have likely ended my life and the lives of the people I was with involved two transport trucks, a moose, rain, a rocky outcropping and beautiful northern lakes and wilderness. That would have been neat to see at the start but definitely would not have been 'neat' to see at the end.
