What’s the problem?
They want to die by hot lava, then let ‘em.
Darwin marches on.

I had to look that one up. Imagine a tidal wave. Imagine a tidal wave made up of wet cement. With trees in it. Traveling 25 to 40 MPH. Just damn.

Good idea. Don’t risk an Indonesian rangers life to rescue these idiots.

Anthropologists will dig them up 2000 years from now and wonder why they stayed when they should have fled.

Hiding from officials on Lombok. Darwin Award candidates. Forget the volcano. If the officials can’t find them I am pretty sure the Komodo dragons can sniff them out. Dinner....

Stupidity is re-defined daily in our once great Nation.
We are constantly/incessantly/relentlessly being threatened by STUPIDITY, by izlam, by DEMOCRATS, by CONGRESS, by SCOTUS, POTUS & FLOTUS, the U.N. ~ And I believe we are (as a Nation) rapidly falling into the clutches of Satan.

I doubt these were American tourists. Was just at a renowned tourist spot and stuck behind a group of Japanese tourists who stopped every two feet to take pictures of EVERYTHING, and then again with a selfie stick. They had absolutely no concern that they were blocking everyone else trying to navigate the site as well. Incredible.

I wish I was surprised.
When there was a tsunami warning out one of our guests asked if they could go to the beach to watch.
People who have never actually been in danger have no concept of what it is.

I would just hope that people would have better reasoning capabilities. I guess that’s hat is too much to hope for.
