Yes, mistakes are a part of being human. But what happens when an attempted solution to a problem results in an unintended consequence that actually makes the original problem worse? This is known as “the cobra effect”.
How has today’s society changed because of Sandy Koufax, Tom Brady, or Tiger Woods? How have courtrooms and the law changed because of the tragic loss of a No. 1 NBA Draft Pick and a NASCAR driver? And what effect did Magic Johnson’s announcement regarding his HIV diagnosis have on the NBA and testing across the nation? Dr. Gelber has compiled a list of impactful injuries and tragedies and the ripple effect they have had on players across several different sports and on society in general.
