Stupid Tourist Tricks
It's off to a fast start already this year! A list of incidents involving people trying to obtain the coveted Darwin Award. I will keep you up to date of all the stupid tourist tricks. This yesterday: We thought it was cold! (this is a first) http://www.ktvq.com/story/31975424/y...ed-it-was-cold How this lady lived and was not gored is beyond me: Buy a Powerball ticket lady: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zfk1O9_quxs This from last week: Amazing no one got taken out: http://www.krtv.com/story/31915893/v...nal-park-video Much of the time, this is what happens: Fat guy vs Bison https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNvTHOrTf_Y At this rate, it should be a record year for goring incidents, Chinese tourists seem particularly clueless. So far no goring's, but it's coming. If you have any from your area, post them up. Last edited by Bwana; 06-08-2016 at 06:56 AM.. |

But I at least hope her parents see that video and realize what ****stains they are for leaving her there. They got lucky that outcome wasn't far, far worse.

My guess it will be a reaction thing, not a calculated decision. |

Agreed, but he was responding to political bullshit; i.e. I think that was the point.

I was in Yellowstone last month and saw a mother grizzly bear with two young cubs as we drove down a road. I would've stayed in the car, but there were fifty tourists out taking pictures of them from a distance of less than 100 feet. I got out at 200 feet and figured I'd be safe since the grizzly had 50 mauling candidates in place before it would even consider me.

It's quite possible Brooke mistook the kid for a macaroni and simply charged.

And you're absolutely right - gut reaction. I'm just surprised that this particular set of parents doesn't seem to have said instinct.

If not, I hope I’d help, but there’s a substantial non-zero possibility the flight instinct kicks in. |

Why did you decide to make it political? Are you able to articulate that reasoning?

It starts...
This from a few days ago: Woman falls into thermal feature after illegally entering Yellowstone National Park, park officials say A woman suffered burns after falling into a thermal feature at Yellowstone National Park on Tuesday, according to the park officials. Yellowstone has been closed to visitors since March 24 due to the coronavirus pandemic. The woman “illegally entered the park,” the National Park Service (NPS) said in a statement. She told park rangers she was backing up to take pictures when she fell into a thermal feature at the Old Faithful Geyser, one of the most famous geyser’s in the world. After falling, the woman, who was not identified by park officials, was able to get in her vehicle and drive through the park when she was contacted by rangers. Due to her injuries, she was life-flighted to the Burn Center at Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center, park officials said. https://www.mercurynews.com/2020/05/...officials-say/
