Why is npr still in business?
There is never a lack of Darwin Award nominees.
Tourons go international.
Tourons: Tourists who are complete morons.
Selfies are strange.
I’m not saying we should kill all the stupid people. I’m just saying we should remove all the warning labels and let things sort themselves out.
I thought of it before I got to that line in the article: it does seem like a disproportionate number of these stories come out of India
“The U.S. ranked second with 45 cases...”
And 44 of the cases were Asian tourists.
“”Last week, the Barber Law Firm released findings from its analysis of google news accounts of selfies that results in injury or death, beginning in March 2014 through May 2025.””
Glad to see that - I was going to ask if anyone was keeping track of these incidents...since they pop up now and then...For some - never again!
Thats why i look the door and turn music up
And those brilliant engineers and doctors are brought here to provide us the benefit of their superior intellect.
And now, for the most ironic statement of the day:
“In India, authorities are now worried about another potential danger spot: massive gatherings.”
They try to do the same with bison in Yellowstone. Bison are sometimes found in towns near Yellowstone National Park, especially in West Yellowstone, Montana, and Mammoth, Wyoming, where they can wander into residential areas, cause traffic jams, and even visit local businesses for a place to graze or scratch themselves. People are told to give them a wide birth but sometimes some idiot will try to get a closeup selfie with one. And when an animal with horns weighing up to 2,000 pounds and standing 6 feet tall at the shoulder who can run up to 35 miles per hour, faster than a man, gets excited (pissed), it’s not a good idea to wanna be Jack Hanna and be an ambassador for animals that just want to be left alone. Just don’t give them an excuse to get excited.

Here in Wyoming it’s practically a hobby, gathering and sharing videos of all the stupid things tourists do in Yellowstone.
