Sad. Being dumb may not be against the law, but the penalties.....

One of the comments at the link could not be anymore spot on.

“I have a feeling she would be alive today if social media didn’t exist”

>> accidentally filmed her own death

I believe it was the death that was accidental, right?

[lee martell]

My sympathies for her family.
No loving parent should ever have to view something so tragic, or know such a video is online someplace.

Some people simply do not understand the power of water currents

They can sweep away automobiles 🚗🚗🚘🚘🚗🚗 in a flash

For All: FREEPATHON ALERT! Folks, we have only LESS THAN A MONTH of the quarter left, and we’re only at 60% to goal...gotta get’r’done!

If you are crossing a paved ford in your car, it only takes few inches of fast-moving water to sweep your car downstream.

You are right...lots of people have no idea of the strength of a current.

Even wading knee-deep in a fast-moving stream is a challenge.

Darwin Awards potential.

[Fireone]

I wouldn’t assume that.
She may have been filming her suicide.

The young lady's name is a match in 2 Gematria ciphers with Darwin's full name.

very sad....she made a mistake.....at least she was doing something good and wholesome...God bless her and her family..

We crossed 4-6 inches of water with my friend’s van (😲🤯😱) about 25 years ago but only after I watched the 🌊🌊 water for several minutes.

It was pooling, not moving tree branches or mud, other debris.

4-lane highway but not a major highway 🛣️

Don't know if this is the exact spot but this is a photo of the falls:

See if ‘Barack Hussein Obama’ comes out to 666 or maybe 216

😂🤣😝

[SaveFerris]

And yes a van 🚐 is basically a houseboat

[nickcarraway]

Thanks.

I always mention that Reagan earned his life guard fame working on the river, which anyone who has swam them can tell you is a whole different ballgame than a pool.

Stay the hell away from high water.
