But how is he supposed to not do something that isn't written as a warning not to do in the first place? Just because someone made a stupid choice doesn't mean he has no chance at winning a lawsuit. There are a lot of cases where someone makes a stupid decision and gets injured and sues and wins. Lucky bastards!
Just because you can sue and win doesn't mean you should. Frivolous law suits like that ruin it for everyone else.

Oh, by the way, careful when you order coffee from McDonald's. It's hot
