A visitor to Yellowstone National Park nearly got into extremely hot water after filming himself touching a boiling geothermal pool. The man, who hasn't been named, has been condemned after sharing the video of the incident online.
In the clip (which you can watch below), the man has strayed off the boardwalk designed to keep park visitors safe, and crouches by the bubbling pool to tap the surface. As some commenters remarked, he could easily have slipped on the loose ground, or fallen through the thin crust into the scalding hot groundwater.
