Out of all those, three are ones I'd be okay with: the sharks (been around sharks before), the astronaut, and the pilot. Of the three, only the sharks is something easily done.

So careless for a moment of Instagram or YouTube fame. There are plenty of young risk takers who have paid the ultimate price for there foolhardy actions. It is just plain stupid in my opinion.

The ones that went wrong are too graphic to post. There are more than a few of those.

If more was written about the selfies gone wrong, perhaps fewer people would attempt such stunts. Sorta like the Signal 30 movie we watched in driver’s ed class.
