The Depths of Human Stupidity

Sounds like a plan to me- take a walk out on melting ice right near a spot where the water is showing through!
I'm glad you're being careful out there! Don't follow them in. :o

Oh gosh -- crazy! But makes for a good photo op!

Such a wonderful image (of something stupid admittedly!).The black and white contrasts with the little splashes of colour are just excellent.

Oh dear, God's way of sifting out the stupid.

Is that an ice jam that could shift. Yikes

I just shake my head at the things some people do. Great capture of stupidity :) Where is this? Our snow and ice have all just melted away over the past few days and we now have rain, freezing rain and ice

The thing that comes to mind is... The Darwin awards :)
January 24th, 2018  
LOL!

Your title is perfect. Great candid photo.
January 24th, 2018  
It sure looks cold. Great candid capture.
January 24th, 2018  
What could possibly go wrong? Great shot .. love the processing!
January 24th, 2018  
Great shot but not a great idea!
January 24th, 2018  
they look old enough to know better!

@sandrajo Thanks Sandi- oh I am safely on the shore!
@taffy Thanks Taffy- and they weren't the only ones!
@robz Thanks Rob- yup as Forrest Gump said, "Stupid is as stupid does"
@onewing Thanks Babs! Oh, I think God is just letting them do what they want. I don't think there's an ounce of reason in them that He could work with!
@joansmor Thanks Joan- it was getting close to that after several days of 40+ degree weather.
@k1w1 Thanks K1- It's the Delaware River between Pennsylvania and New Jersey (north at the Delaware Water Gap area). We had two weeks worth of frigid cold weather which caused the ice jam, but prior to the day I took this shot, we'd had several warmer days- 40 degrees or so, so it really wasn't all that safe to be walking on it- especially so close to where you can see water!
@nicolecampbell Darwin Awards- Absolutely!! Thanks Nicole!
@louannwarren Thanks Lou Ann- laughing with you!
@henrir Thanks Henri!
@mittens Thanks Marilyn- it may look cold but it was in the 40's on this day.
@jeanniec57 Thanks Jeannie!
@thistle Thanks Joyce!
@helenhall Thanks Helen- yes, absolutely old enough- even the boy!

once again proof of why women live longer! Nice wintery scene
January 25th, 2018  
Great capture .Hope they kept safe.

@olivetreeann
I think we have had the same weather system here. I love the Pennsylvania area. I really want to come back there again sometime.

And to think they took a child out there with them.

@grammyn Haha- one might think that- but there are two women here and two men, one boy and a dog! Thanks Katy!

@wendyfrost Thank you Wendy!

@k1w1 Come visit any time!

@randystreat Thanks Kathy- and a dog too.

@olivetreeann when I wrote that I was afraid that might be the case but I couldn't tell for sure
January 25th, 2018  
Awesome shot
January 25th, 2018  
@kerristephens Thanks Kerri!

@grammyn It's an easy mistake to make when everyone is bundled up and wearing similar hats.
January 25th, 2018  
Great plan! People are really silly at times aren't they?
January 26th, 2018  
@kjarn You've got that right Kathy! Thanks!
