So I got this email today, it's a photographer photographing another photographer. And I think this dumb cunt, doesnt want to live anymore. Watch this dumb cunt almost kill himself.
I have quoted the entire email below, so you can see how crazy he is ;)
I've been an amateur/semi professional photographer for 55 years,
have taken
tens of thousands of pictures in a multitude of circumstances but
never
had this guys Chutzpah !!!
This is a case of photographer photographs photographer. The
following photographs were taken
by photographer Hans van de Vorst at the Grand Canyon, Arizona.
The descriptions are his own.
The identity of the photographer IN the photos is unknown.
I was simply stunned seeing this guy standing on this solitary rock
IN the Grand Canyon .
The canyon's depth is 900 meters here. The rock on the right is
next to the canyon and safe.
Watching this guy on his thong sandals, with a camera and a tripod
I asked myself 3 questions:
1. How did he climb that rock?
2. Why not taking that sunset picture on that rock to the right,
which is perfectly safe?
3. How will he get back?
This is the point of no return.
After the sun set behind the canyon's horizon he packed his things
(having only one hand available)
And prepared himself for the jump. This took about 2 minutes.
At that point he had the full attention of the crowd.
After that, he jumped on his thong sandals...
The canyon's depth is 900 meters here.
Now you can see that the adjacent rock is higher so he tried to
land lower, which is quite steep
And tried to use his one hand to grab the rock.
We've come to the end of this little story. Look carefully at the
photographer.
He has a camera, a tripod and also a plastic bag, all on his
shoulder or in his left hand.
Only his right hand is available to grab the rock and the weight of
his stuff is a problem.
He lands low on this flip flops both his right hand and right foot
slips away...
At that moment I take this shot.
He pushes his body against the rock.
He waits for a few seconds, throws his stuff on the rock, climbs
and walks away.
And now for some crazyness
