Yellowstone official who took call of man in hot springs talks about incident 

Don't worry, he's too stupid to know he's dead.

worse than horrifying...

Miguel Diaz dont you know the darkworld has something to do with it..thanxs and god bless

:O!!!!!

you are the one off-chart hot

There are signs and guard rails everywhere. He CHOSE to get too close.

@@veramae4098what does that have to do with her seeming traumatized exactly ? Or did you just really want to get that off

I am A BIG BOY

I thought so too. Somebody died a horrible death.😢

​@ProdigalRaiden he's justifying that there is no need for her to be traumatized

Indeed!

More like the devil in there head telling them to jump

Not all people are able to follow instructions.

If you fall off the boardwalk... stay on the boardwalk

Some people just can't follow directions

Megatron2013 how do you know that she filmed it

@@pigrabbit1801 i also know,i searched about it.most of the news about it like CNN or so told every detail,it was horryfying

@carey ⚘️ He died within less than ten minutes. She probably stood there, in shock, filming instead of calling dialing 911. That's today's society. Film instead of calling 911.

@carey ⚘️ Honestly, who knows. There was a thunderstorm on the same day. Then police and park rangers found him on the bottom of the pond. They decided to wait the next day after the storm was gone. The guy dissolved and there was nothing left.

@NonExistingMortal She panicked while filming her brother screaming in the water. Calling 911 was too late. He was turning into a hard-boiled egg.

Should have called the police. Sad very scary

That’s outrageous.

Uh-huh, yeah, because they put kids from juvie on buses and send them on vacations to national parks. People are always so darn nice to those imprisoned children.

@@SaynaTheSpiffy Typical anecdotal ignorant bullshit.

No, but stupidity can unfix most anything!

Nope!

LOL he would be the last person to ever fall in

Feds knock on your door in 1....2....see ya!

Weird thought process.

Dexter is in Miami, too far away!

Who called?

@@herewegokids7 his sister who was watching/filming him as he wanted to get a picture close by it

@@MrJLiles14 😭

@@herewegokids7 right? Talk about traumatic

I read it it must have been really terrible for everyone involved. His dad flew out with an expectation that he would be able to bring home his sons remains and he couldn’t because they dissolved. Just heartbreaking

HopefulOne89 how is Sable holding up? I just discovered this story yesterday and omg..😢 I couldn’t imagine being in her shoes, with that day burned into her memory..❤️

I'm so sad for everyone who is a family member or friend of this individual.

Sad, but completely foolish. Play stupid games..

@@secularargument5720 people who say this are devoid of human compassion, we are humans and make mistakes.

@@secularargument5720 well it was movies like jack *ss that started all this stupid *ss behavior .

They found very little. The thermal feature was also highly acidic. His family did not get remains to bury.

There's always someone somewhere else in the world that typed exactly what I was thinking first😆

You could say it smells like Hell.

@@ktkt1825 i would not say it's 'cool' though

fidel catsro yup

Sulfuric

nice to read this sulphuric comment 3 yrs later ;)

Honestly it was not the acid that was as bad as the heat. It was around 200 degrees

@@samdabeast3186 yeah the heat will kill rapidly before the acid devours

I suspect it may be "cry wolf!" syndrome. We get so many stupid, useless, unnecessary warnings in our daily lives (Prop. 65, anyone?) that we rightfully ignore them. Then when a _real_ danger exists, we don't appreciate the danger because we've seen so many pointless and unnecessary warnings before.

that's BS. tons of warning signs. I bet the foreign tour bus guides all warn them before getting off buses.

I think the saddest thing about this is someone lost their life. I could be wrong though. I haven't lived there all my life

I think for a few people (or maybe a lot), when they go on vacation, their brains also go on vacation too.

It has to be that a person believes that " it won't happen to me" sceniro. Or someone who doesn't like to be told what to do or how to do it and when you tell me not to I will anyways. Always amazes me how people feel they have super powers and they are immune to things , that being said, there are exceptions of people with special needs , that need supervision, and in that case they didn't drive there themselves right? So I assume it's a look how cool I am" or " I will be center of attention " or " I'll do what I damn well want" attitude. I mean you haven't stirred a boiling pot of hot water with your hand before have you? You use a toilet in a bathroom don't you? What makes this ok to do in your brain I wonder? Disregard or stupidity or lack of judgement or suicide

Gary Chynne TOO*

Shouty Shout "We all make mistakes". This has nothing at all to do with "mistake." Only the few deliberately take an extreme risk, going too close to the hot springs or attempting a stupid photo further away from safety. Then an inordinate number of people get dragged in to shovel up their gizzards and post them home to mommy, diverting them away from more productive endeavour.

blastman8888 i actually am in yellowstone now, it is very very clear that it is not safe to touch these features and you can see that everything here is at boiling temperatures. there are many signs that explain how dangerous they are and depict incidents like this one.

Yep but instead of just saying "you will be killed instantly" they should add... - if you're lucky

Which....I mean.....since it's that dangerous should it really be that accessible?

​@@herewegokids7it's perfectly safe as long as you're not a moron.

Sense of entitlement, TikTok, and social media in general, are all contributors to the dumbing down of society.

I know right! Maybe like "boiling pool of acid" or something.

Just the algorithm being weird

He has the best shorts contents I've ever seen.

It was also acidic. There wasn’t much left.

We were almost forced off the boardwalk by a juvenile gang. It was scary. He got within one inch of my face and I thought I was going to die. There were no rangers near the area.

you seem like you are off your meds.

Italian mafia should file a patent.

Rus Tar why they suckass and snitch vs cartel-u watch too much TV

jason voorhees I think you found what you were looking for Mr Jason Voorhees.

what a disgusting thing to say.

@@amw_cats I couldn't agree more

The man had a geology degree. Had a family which you claim to care about, but perhaps what you should also consider is that arrogance will kill you just as fast as stupidity will. 🤨

The park is too big for that, and it would be unsightly if they did. They need to post signs that it’s an active volcano and thermal features can and do kill.

@@evilsharkey8954 they already have signs posted, but unfortunately, some people choose to ignore the signs for a picture.

@@enjoystraveling Make them graphic, like the “rotating shaft hazard” sign. That one gets the point across.

There is no foolproof way to protect the stupid from themselves.

Boiling acid mud lobster dish coming up

scradleeee Sounds like the beginning of a great movie screenplay. Let's get on it!!

Haha, yeah

I think if they put a fence, they’d always be someone climb over so they could have a photo taken for media.

This guy was pretty much determined to take a dip in a hot spring. Even if there was a railing he would have just climbed under it or over it. People need to be accountable for their decisions, for better or for worse. Stupidity can't be protected from itself.

She's not a cop, she's the public relations officer.

Hot, acidic water of 459 degrees, with the molten magma, just 1,000 feet below the surface!

@@pamelabacker2420 that is a rather high temperature.

@@Slarti Its the hottest spring in the world.

That’s a really ignorant and stupid comment. Don’t be dumb.

She isn't a cop, she's a public relations officer. They temperatures vary from feature to feature, and will fluctuate from day to day because Yellowstone is above and active caldera.

close it down? No need to protect the stupid...

Why don't we just ban everything that kills someone? Then we can all die of depression due to extreme boredom from nothing left in life to enjoy. We shouldn't close down parks just because some people are stupid. If people don't follow the rules; that's on them.

It's extremely well marked. If you die, you made a conscious decision to put your life and rangers' lives at risk. They do not sugar coat the danger.

good point..... it's like having a nuclear bomb in a park & saying, "please dont go near it or there will be an unpleasant explosion".

Let's ban cars. Too many stupid people
