Not gettin' me on that thing. Could've been the vaxx. Nope, still not goin'.

A Freedom of Information Act request uncovered that at least six people have died and 56 more have gone missing over the last five years at Grand Canyon National Park. (FTA)

56 + 6 = 62 people have died.

My guess is it was either intentional or an incident involving a selfie

Been there, done that, got the t shirt.

It’s not so bad.

To have gone over the side, the dude had to have had a death wish / l’appel du vide.

Well ots good to know that “It is best known for the Skywalk, a horseshoe-shaped glass bridge that juts out 70 feet from the canyon walls and gives visitors a view of the Colorado River 4,000 feet below.” I guess I’ll have to visit to see what the hoopla is all about. I thought it would be best known for the beauty of the canyons. Silly me.

Shall I rally the Munchkins for their opinion?

... the Grand Canyon has consistently proved to be a dangerous spot for those taking risks from great heights.

Really? That's so unexpected!

Maybe it should be filled in ... safety first, right?

Those last few seconds couldn’t have been fun for him. When hearing stories about those who fell out of the WTC the thought that comes to me is “I hope they died in mid air of a massive heart attack or stroke”.

Hmmm-mm-m ... you get a little less than 30 seconds to watch your life pass before your eyes. If you are old that may not be enough time. If you are young you may need a re-run.

“unidentified” but they know his age....

[Vaquero]

Not part of the national park. It is owned by the tribe.

Went to GC last in 2005. 2 years before it opened. Went as close to the edge as I felt comfortable going. I am never comfortable with heights so I would never get close enough to fall

[Bonemaker]

Photos are good enough for me!

[muir_redwoods]

Last time I was there they had a sign warning about summertime hiking. Something along the lines of “It’s 115° in the shade and there ain’t no shade”

[noiseman]

Search and rescue teams from the Mohave County Sheriff's Office used ropes and a helicopter to try and help the fallen man.

Um…uh… The guy fell 4,000 feet. I would say these “first responders” were being just a tad overly optimistic.

[Sirius Lee]

A man fell to his death at the Grand Canyon Skywalk earlier this week, as the Grand Canyon National Park was recently named the deadliest

This could have an impact on park attendance.

[Blennos]

Interesting feat of construction. More here about how they did it. A short video at link.

People get a little crazy up there.

[Hazwaste]

Wife and I drove there while staying outside of Flagstaff. Its on a reservation at the west rim, and the experience was overly expensive and regimented. We had to leave our phones behind in lockers, could only buy pictures from their over-priced photographer, and had to keep moving while we were on it, so there was very little time to appreciate the view. OK for a one-time experience but we’ll never go back. Having said all that, I can’t see any way someone would fall from it without being suicidal or very stupid.

[Rural_Michigan]

Unidentified yet they knew he was 33?

[WeaslesRippedMyFlesh]

Man falls to his death from Grand Canyon's Skywalk overlook - namesake national park is America's most dangerous to stupid people , with highest numbers of deaths

there. fixed it.

[Vendome]

He’ll bounce back from this with a new understanding of the gravity of his carelessness
