    Isn't it possible that Hamlet is both really insane and pretending to be insane? He doesn’t think he is crazy, but his actions suggest otherwise. His behavior throughout the play is erratic; one would expect such actions from a sociopath. For example, after he kills Polonius, he will not reveal the location of the body (Shakespeare 171). Since this act is…

    was the talk of the nation for a short while, so there are many opinions about Chris’s actions. Some think he just had to be insane to do what he did.

My opinion is that Chris was not crazy, he was just a stupid, inexperienced, arrogant boy who wanted to prove he could survive on his own in the wild. McCandless was an educated man. After all, he, “graduat[ed], with honors, from Emory University in the summer of 1990.” (Author’s…
