Didn’t that happen to a young man at Yellowstone a few years ago?

Oh yeah. That was big news here. He got boiled alive in a high acid geyser and his body was dissolved.

These warning signs are posted all over Yellowstone NP in sseveral languages

I personally witnessed a teenaged girl (17-19) at the Yellowstone Geyser Basin area leave the boardwalk, walked across the crust to take a closeup photo of one of the geyser pools with her i-phone. Her parents were with her. I told her parents how dangerous and illegal it was and they just shrugged, claiming she would be ok. Head shaking moment. You can't fix stupid.

Yes it did. He was travelling with his sister and she warned him to stay on the wooden sidewalk. Nothing of him was left to recover. He literally dissolved.
