Two recent deaths in which men plummeted in the Grand Canyon follow dozens of apparently accidental fatal falls since the national park was established 100 years ago.
FILE - In this March 20, 2007, file photo, the Skywalk hangs over the Grand Canyon on the Hualapai Indian Reservation before its grand opening ceremony at Grand Canyon West, Ariz. Two recent deaths in which men plummeted to their death in the Grand Canyon follow dozens of apparently accidental fatal falls since the national park was established 100 years ago.
The body of a Japanese tourist was found March 26 in a wooded area south of Grand Canyon Village, away from the rim. No amount of signage, railings or even verbal warnings will be enough to end the falls, said Michael P. Ghiglieri, author of "Over the Edge: Death in the Grand Canyon."
