Based on this news-

I propose a GoFundMe to get you & DavidTheGnome to the Grand Canyon to investigate this trend.

Who knows what could happen once y’all get there?

We don’t need to ban them, we just need to accept some common sense canyon control

Seems like common sense to not stand on the edge of the big hole.

Jeez. Go all the way to the Grand Canyon just to end up dying.

I've been twice, even got kind of close to the edges in parts of it.
I didn't fall or die either time.

It made me nervous just watching them.


It made me sick to my stomach to watch kids get close to the edge to take a picture. I had to go to the car.

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.


I don't understand this. I'd guess these people may be suicidal because most should exhibit caution because a slip and fall 400 to 1000 feet will result in a poor outcome. I think they have a death wish.

They won’t have to worry about me, because my acrophobic arse won’t be anywhere near that place.
