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.. |

If you need proof that society is getting dumber, just look at the tsunami of these kind of stories we're seeing these days... seems like its at least a new story a day I'm seeing

Drive much?
Yellowstone pulls fully submerged vehicle from thermal feature in the park Officials at Yellowstone National Park on Friday pulled a car from the Semi-Centennial Geyser near Roaring Mountain after the driver with four passengers inadvertently drove into the thermal feature. Law enforcement rangers temporarily closed both lanes of the roadway near the accident in order to safely lift the car from the geyser, where it had been fully submerged in 9 feet of water. After the accident Thursday, the five occupants were able to get out of the vehicle on their own, and each was transported via ambulance to a nearby hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

No clue, I'm sure more information will come out in the next couple of days. Everyone will be fine, but that rig is toast.

Ouch geyser explodes in Yellowstone.
Not a stupid tourist trick, just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Nothing like 148 degree water and large rocks raining down on you, to make for an exciting day!

Shit! Is that a sign that the Yellowstone caldera is about to blow?

No, this was in the article I caught. “Today’s explosion does not reflect activity within the volcanic system, which remains at normal background levels of activity,” the Park Service noted in a press release. “Hydrothermal explosions like that of today are not a sign of impending volcanic eruptions, and they are not caused by magma rising towards the surface.”

I feel like the stupid tourist trick in this case is continuing to record and get your shot while telling your kids to GTFO.... run past mommy, this is good shit.
