And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

I've lived life on the edge many years ago and that's not life on the edge. That's two kids who think they're untouchable. Age and time will change their attitude.
I was going to say approximately 7 people per year die at the Grand Canyon, which is what I remembered, but double-checking, and by 2025, that number has risen to 12 to 17 per year.
Granted, it's a tough walk that will cull people with heart conditions, and when I was immortal, I crossed down and over and walked out the North Rim with a full backpack, so they have my sympathy, but if I was guessing why the rest of them died . . it was for photos just like this.

My parents visited the Grand Canyon in their honeymoon. They watched as a car with children inside rolled over a cliff
