JAHS Posted May 30, 2022 Posted May 30, 2022 According to a poll here are Scary Associations With Every American State Just like other countries, America has its fair share of strange occurrences and scary stories that have or are rumored to have happened in various places across the country. Apparently Utah is scary because of the Mormons.

I grew up in the area and went here on field trips in elementary school. That legend was one of the funner options for how it got there.

InCognitus Posted May 30, 2022 Posted May 30, 2022 Obviously the Grand Canyon is to blame for Arizona's "heights" scare fame. How Many People Fall in the Grand Canyon? Falling is not the most common death in the Grand Canyon, but it's a real hazard. Read these safety tips before your visit to enjoy the park safely. "Dying from heat or dehydration is more common than falling off the edge in the Grand Canyon, but it is still a major concern. According to the Arizona Daily Sun in 2015, of the “55 who have accidentally fallen from the rim of the canyon, 39 were male. Eight of those guys were hopping from one rock to another or posing for pictures, including a 38-year-old father from Texas pretending to fall to scare his daughter, who then really did fall 400 feet to his death.” I'm surprised the number is only 55. 1
