    D'oh!

    I have books recounting deaths in each of the National Parks in America and Yosemite is well out in front. A lot of rock climbers die there, but I was amazed at how many idiots get washed over falls every year, mostly by wading out into the river right above the falls for a good pic and then someone slips...
    Oh, and it happens because of this, too - you can see on the right side that the waterfall suddenly starts right at the edge of this beautiful spot once the runoff has stopped. People get caught in the undertow from that while swimming in this deceivingly amazing and calm swimming hole. And of course the people who jump on the cliff there into the pool and break their necks are also a factor. :fp:

    That is beautiful! That's it, I'm jumping off and going swimming! Nobody can stop me... :D
    :lol: I would tackle you. :lol: .... Note that there is no lack of idiots who have decided that this proven death trap is just simple summer fun though. :roll:

    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I knew I could predict awkward situations regarding the behavior of a certain person, but the magnitude of it still sometimes surprises me.
