Sure it's pretty and may even be mesmerizing but don't be stupid

I've personally view the Colorado River running along the canyons and it can be breathtaking but don't risk your life by being stupid:

"Orlando Serrano-Arzola, 25, was on top of the rim overlooking the Colorado River taking pictures when he fell, the National Park Service said in a statement. The Phoenix man fell about 100 feet and then slid another 150 feet, the park service said."
