You sure they have the definition of Texan correct? Says he went to Purdue....
Gravity kills.
Yikes. RIP.
Irony being ironic, when we went there I noticed the lack of guard rails and thought it was refreshing to not have the nanny state put up rails to ruin the beauty. I guess it is tribal land and they don’t have to.
This is why we should stop all erosion...once we control this global warming/climate change system we will never again need to fear such erosion atrocities as this horrific ‘Grand Canyon’ thingie.

sad. it was a unique death though. doesn’t really overcome the sad.
Those boilermakers will do it every time.
A fall like intentional or stupid enough to stand on the edge of a cliff.
Watch out for that first step...it’s a lu lu!
This man’s act was a real hit on the Grand Canyon circuit.
Read this in another article and it makes no sense whatsoever:

“He wasn’t trying to shoot a photograph or anything like that,” his sister-in-law Suzy Naughalty said Tuesday by telephone. “It was just a freakish accident.”

Compliments of Grofe
When I visited the Grand Canyon, I was shocked (and favorably impressed) in this era so much fear and panic and safety nannyism, that there were miles and miles of canyonside where anybody can walk up and just fall in.
I expected it to be fenced, guard railed, laser alarmed etc. They actually expect people to use common sense....very impressive.
It must have been a great view on the way down. Was it worth it, Tex?
Last night on BATES MOTEL Norma Bates explained that people who usually fall into the Grand Canyon are those who say “Look, honey. Take my picture while I pretend I’m falling. Ahhhhhh!”
Was he a banker?
