    The answer to the question above is explained below:

    Explanation:

    Hubris could be simply explained as a demonstration of excessive pride accompanied by a promotion to a position that gives the person a room to exercise authority.

    A modern day person who may suffer from hubris is an example of a person who gets arrogant with positon. This is what some may refer to as "power drunken". Hubris becomes obvious in an individual when a position of authority is bestowed on that individual.

    Hubris becomes obvious in an individual when that individual show:

    1. Excessive pride

    2. Poor judgment

    3. Boastfulness

    4. Disregarding advice, and abusive towards others

    Hubris pride is extreme because they exhibit excessive pride due to a position of authority they occupy which makes them have authority over others. Hubris want to be seen alone as a "messiah", making them make every other person irrelevant.

    Hubris may lead to a person downfall because:

    1. People would not like an individual with hubristic character, hence the withdrawal of their loyalty.

    2. The person wouldn't like to be corrected, this may endanger the person's life.

    3. The person may have too many enemies, carrying out the person's downfall becomes easy.

    4. Poor judgment accompanied by " I know all syndrome" would be detrimental to the person's progress in that position, hence leading to the person's downfall.
