NOT the same group. Posted for scale.

I saw a lot of people pose in risky positions when I was at the Grand Canyon. All I could think about was some sudden and expected wind knocking them over.

So very sad, so very foolish.

Is any photograph worth your life?

[9YearLurker]

I can’t for the life of me imagine bringing a bunch of students there. Just wouldn’t want the liability—or for their idiocy, coupled with mine, bring them to any harm.

They could rename it “Darwin Overlook”.

Three people fell in just in the last three weeks alone.

I think I’d rather travel alone than with someone snapping photos every step of the way. Little more annoying IMO.

You couldn’t even get me to the base of that thing much less climb it!

I see this and the first thing that comes to mind is Wile E Coyote.

And they just keep doing it. It's like flypaper for idiots.

"Just back-up a little more."

Stand on an overhang...just for a picture?

smh

The world needs more selfies to thin the herd.

Back a bit and a little to your right ,D’oh not funny

[eyeamok]

Maybe we need a campaign for this type of stuff?

Take the Darwin Challenge!

Selfie of Darwin in Action

I challenged Darwin!....

make it a regular Tourist Attraction.

[BenLurkin]

It’s a beautiful spot. I can see why it attracts hikers.

[GnuThere]

This is just sad - and, are people now so unaware that all beautiful attractions will have to be fenced off? I was at Machu Picchu and saw a young lady prancing around with her back to the incredibly steep mountain, only a couple feet from the edge, all for the benefit of a selfie.

Idiots put responders in danger.
