The NY Post got their hands on some pretty damning text messages where this CEO was irresponsibly downplaying the risks and cutting the ticket price for a potential prospect. I know he's dead now, but I hope some sort of regulations come out of this.

To be fair, you have to sign a waiver when getting even the most routine surgery too (in Australia, anyway)

While that is true, and as the person below mentioned there are a lot of things with risk that have waivers, you don't necessarily see the people making you sign those waivers telling everyone that said risks are stupid to even consider, as Rush did in the texts he sent.
