Johnny Hammersticks Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Wait...she fell 16 feet or she fell from much higher into a 16 foot deep pool? The article is unclear. If she fell 16 feet, did she hit a rock or something? This doesn’t make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBBills Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 You do things like that knowing it could happen. Everyone has fun in different ways. For me I like to watch TV, cook food, play video games... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything I've found has the exact same info as the link. And yes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This girl must have hit a rock or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This girl must have hit a rock or something. I'm guessing it was hundreds of feet and she landed in a 16 ft. pool of water. I can't think of any "daredevil" bothering with a possible 16 ft. fall.

Metal Man Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 (edited) I have done ~30 a handful of times, of course it was a planned run and jump. If she slipped and fell she likely hit the edge or side on the way down or went in head first at a weird angle.

LeGOATski Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Hit her head and drowned, probably. People have fallen while taking selfies at the Grand Canyon and other such places, too. I was at the Horshoe Bend and people were all over the place by the ledge taking pictures. There was only a small section that had a rail and the place was too crowded. It seemed dangerous.
