Sir sir sir. You have gotten yourself into hot water.
Suicide by geyser.
Suicide by geyser.
He was a good egg!
“If hot sulphurous bubbling boiling mud isn’t enough to convince you to stay on the boardwalk, nothing is. Suicide, and perhaps Darwin.”
Maybe trying to impress a girl.
No need for a crane or body recovery since the body no longer exist.
Not necessarily. In the '80s, I did Rotorua, NZ tours with the then-wife. The usual warnings, stay on the path, etc., and they added that a few months back, an American geologist that knew better, still had to get a closer look, and slipped up to his waist in something or another.
He survived, and was still in the hospital.
Why would I suspect the involvement of some hand-held digital device in this par-boiled episode? I wonder...
LOL...winner!
He got off the boardwalk and walked 225 yards — over TWICE the length of a football field
Anyone else read that in Morgan Freeman’s voice.
Ever put a rack of ribs in a crockpot for a half day? Meat falls right off the bone. They may pull a skull and femur out, but that's about it.
The bison gettin’ even?
Almost at the brink of the huge Yellowstone waterfall there are some large boulders spaced out in the fast moving river just before it plunges a few hundred feet.
I have lovely photos of a young couple sunning themselves on one of those boulders in the middle of the river.
I have to admit I also sat for a photo on a small rock ledge hundreds of feet above Lake Yellowstone.
And I had more than one moose charge me.
The rock ledge in particular scares me just thinking about it.
VERY inventive way of killing yourself, I have to admit.
Guns, nooses, pills..so old hat.
I think it was the guy who set up Hillary’s email server.
There are a lot of German tourists at national parks. When we were at Yosemite, we saw some drinking water out of the streams. I always wondered how they felt when they got home...
Google “the devil’s pool”. It’s a safe swimming hole at the brink of Victoria Falls. The very brink.
If Yellowstone park was owned by a private individual and they opened it up to tourist the federal government would impose so many restriction on it they would go out of business.
Yellowstone is a very dangerous place, what with free roaming bison, and the various hot springs and not to even mention it is a volcano.
It is a beautiful place but you can get hurt or killed very easy.
