1. Why did Alex have such a deep impact on people?

2. Was Alex trying to die or really "live"?

3. To what extent is being comfortable and happy a deterrent to risk-taking?

It is obvious that McCandless is very endearing to those who meet him. He seems to be able to charm anyone, and in return they want to help him. His intelligence enables him to give advice, although it doesn't help him in regard to taking advice. All in all, I've never believed that Alex truly expected to lose his life in this foolhardy venture. He thought himself invincible...... and he was wrong.
