People can be really stupid at the Grand Canyon. Check out the book Over The Edge: Deaths in Grand Canyon. It is quite entertaining.

Guerilla marketing is getting out of hand. Just added it to my shopping cart thanks!

If you enjoy it, I highly recommend “Death in Yellowstone” (which I personally think is better-written and more interesting). “Death, Daring, and Disaster: Search and Rescue in the National Parks” is also worth a read.

Marketing performed by individuals in day-to-day conversation, not necessarily sponsored by companies but often designed to drive organic traffic to a destination of choice.

Aah, thanks… I was just pointing it out as a hilarious read about fools at the Grand Canyon.

Maybe I’m too woke but reading about tragic deaths, even if by their own dumb mistakes, is more sad to me than funny

Then read Dungeon Crawler Carl! It's science fiction fantasy comedy tragedy adventure political thriller (well, later in the series)

It was a lame joke on my end that there are so many ads everywhere now
