Oleg Deripaska is a very brave man, in all likelihood.

When Ernest Hemingway wrote Death in the Afternoon, his study of Spanish bullfighting, almost 75 years ago, he made a point of appreciating the quality of bravery in both bullfighters and bulls. The most common degree of bravery, Hemingway wrote about the men, is "the ability to temporarily ignore possible consequences". An even greater degree of bravery, he added about the matadors he knew, "is the ability not to give a damn for the possible consequences; not only to ignore them, but to despise them".
