I think that Herzog himself provides a good, if short, analysis of Treadwell's flawed worldview:
>"...once in a while, Treadwell came face-to-face with the harsh reality of wild nature. This did not fit into his sentimentalized view that everything out there was good and the universe in balance and harmony."
He took completely unnecessary risks just to confirm his own highly flawed ideology. In the end it cost him and his girlfriend their lives. His story should serve as a warning.
