Point- Another reason this is shocking is because Antonio is willing to die for Bassanio.
Evidence- Bassanio went to Antonio and asked for money but Antonio did not have money that time, so he went to Shylock and asked for some money to give to Bassanio, which is called a bond. Antonio agreed to give a pound of flesh if he didn't pay Shylock back with the amount of money that Shylock gave to Antonio, because they are very close and good friends and they wanted to save his life. Also Bassanio cares about Antonio so he wants to help him and force Shylock to show mercy.
