Living near a major tourist site always brings out some amusing tales.

Yellowstone ranger and historian Craig Whittlesey wrote a book called Death in Yellowstone. After reading it, I am unable to be surprised by people's idiocy.

Stupid stupid stupid, not to mention disrespectful and inconsiderate.
Several years ago, I was up in the northeast section when I came upon a bunch of cars pulled over to the side of the road, with people alongside and walking around. Of course they had stopped to check out some scenic view or local critter, so I pulled over too to check it out.
There was a park ranger out in the field, frantically waving his arms and shouting "Go back!!! Go back!!!" Some tourist wanted to get a better picture of the grizzly...
You just know that had the geyser erupted, someone would have had a lawyer in the mix in a matter of hours... I would consider this another example of folks doing their best to drain the shallow end of the gene pool.... Vaya con Dios, Dutch
We could sacrifice a lawyer and/or a Sierra Clubber to the Great Spirit of the Thermals.

,,,too stupid to live...like the shoppers in any given Costco with their shopping carts...what's really scary about that is as stoopid as they are wheeling around a thirty pound shopping cart, in just a few minutes, they are gonna jump into a three ton SUV and hit the road...
Stupid CAN be fixed. The solution is terminal and often helps keep the gene pool clean.
