Loose rocks or "selfie"?

Most of these falling deaths are people trying to get that "look at me photo" to post on facebook for attention. I've been to the Grand Canyon, and you won't fall off a cliff unless you are doing something stupid.

Park Rangers say he was off the trail when he fell off the rim.

Natural Selection at work.  Those that never understood the physics of GRAVITY are doomed to FAIL.  We do not fall UP.  If we did, we would all wear lead shoes or float instead.

I get sent a lot of these people
walking perilous ledges, and narrow
mountain overhangs, and doing
the running/leaping thing that
people do for videos.
It's a miracle way more are not
dead from their stupid daredevil
acts all for the sake of a video
or a selfie

Oh well.  .
Yall keep doing that
The big wigs are wanting the
population substantially reduced
anyway. Hopefully when you're
doing your part, you don't hurt
any innocent people or damage
any property. And yes, blood
puddles can be washed off the
sidewalks. Have at it pinheads

I like when I hear about guys falling in the geysers at Yellowstone. I always wonder if their name was Stew!
