A tourist to Yellowstone National Park ignored all warnings, signs, and common sense when she walked off the boardwalk to get a closer look at Old Faithful.
Besides the fact that it’s extremely dangerous considering the scalding hot water (>200F) and steam that is ejected from Old Faithful, she could have damaged the fragile terrain.
Thankfully, a Yellowstone Park Ranger caught her in the act, gave her a good scolding, and was seen walking her away from the area. Here’s hoping that he wrote her a hefty fine for her arrogance.
Full post below with photos and videos of the interaction. Turn your volume all the way up, you can hear the park ranger reading her the riot act.
Hilarious.
“This touron got too up close and personal with Old Faithful in Yellowstone last month and got busted by a park ranger! Please stay on the boardwalk at OF! Do not walk up to geysers! Good job on the filming! we can hear everything even though it’s windy!”
