One of the dumbest things I see is people all crowding around a hole when the ice is borderline. Sure 4 good inches will hold a man but not 10 who all crowd around to see a catch when a flag goes up. Sometimes people don't use their heads at all. I knew a guy who ice fished almost every day of the winter for probably 35 years. One day he fell in , not even 10 feet from shore. To hear him tell the story he barely made it out. From that day forward he had the ice picks hanging around his neck.
Anyway , keep in mind that safe ice for spread out people is not nescessarily safe if everyone crowds around one area.
