Venice gondola capsizes after tourists refuse to sit down and stop taking selfies

What people don't do to get that selfie. It's their own fault.

We have some pretty stupid ones. In fact, there's a new word entering the American vocabulary. Touron. It's a cross between the words tourist and moron. I think it started at Yellowstone National Park for all the people who walk up to bison like they're somebody's cat. At least that's where I first heard it used.

This the same water their sewage empties into and known to cause rashes and other lovely infections. They may end up coming away from this with more than a bad case of embarrassment.

The worst was someone smearing honey on their toddler's hand so they could get a photo of a bear licking it. I know lots of stuff online is fake, but this may have been real. Bear Mauls Honey-Smeared Child | Snopes.com

Still Waters posted a couple of videos of the King's Life Guard and the Blue and Royals at...I think it's called...The Horse Guard Parade. They're mounted in the guard booths on the street. Sometimes one will be standing on the sidewalk. I've seen quite a few of the short clips from there now and I can't believe what people go up and do to them. They grab the reins, they grab them and act all indignant when they get yelled at. One was a father who had a kid about a year old with him. It was probably the first time the kid ever saw a horse because he was scared to death and just screaming. The dad shoved this kid right up into the horse's face. Yes he got yelled at. One of the worst ones was a horse that had gotten spooked and was giving his rider a very hard time. This horse was kicking his back legs and rearing and the guard had to yell at the tourists to get out of the way. They just stood there taking pictures. One with a baby buggy.

They've fallen off of cliffs into the Grand Canyon. I can believe the honey story.

Who knows there might be a Fail Army video out of this. That’s my Christmas wish Santa.

The Chinese are notoriously bad at taking instructions. I've travelled several times on aircraft full of Chinese, they totally ignore instructions to turn off mobile phones and seatbelt warnings.
