A 67-year-old man died after falling over the edge of the Grand Canyon, bringing the number to three deaths at the popular tourist destination in the past eight days. The visitor fell Wednesday near the Yavapai Geology Museum, which is on the South Rim in Grand Canyon Village, according to the National Park Service. Grand Canyon National Park rangers responded and found the man's body about 400 feet below the rim. Helicopter and technical rescue teams recovered the body and park service officials are investigating.

Last week, two people died while visiting the canyon. On Thursday, a man from Hong Kong was taking pictures at an overlook when he slipped and fell, according to the Grand Canyon West. The man, who was in his late 50's, was part of a tour group visiting the Eagle Point observation area at Grand Canyon West and was apparently taking a selfie, according to David Leibowitz, a spokesman for Eagle Point.

It really isn't that hard to avoid falling off a canyon.

As soon as I saw that you posted I thought "it will be something about me going to the grand canyon". You are predictable.

You would be amazed at the idiots that get out there on the rock ledges and take photos.
It made me nervous just watching them.
There are walking trails from one outlook point to another and they aren’t wide at all. They do not have rails or fences beside the trails. At some points you can look straight down.
But again, there are a lot of morons out there that try to kill themselves for a photo op.

If they don't post it on facebook it never happened... So I guess they rather risk dying in order to get a picture than to not get a picture at all..

I'm glad I have a fear of heights. You would never catch me near the edge of a GIANT cliff.
