Grand Canyon, Horseshoe Bend, other national parks overwhelmed by Insta-crowds I Nightline

1. My uncle watch somebody slip fall and die in there
   I swear that canyons probably happy to eat people

2. Wow, no real person really actually say OMG out loud! Weird! 🙄🤣🤣🤣

3. I’ll enjoy it from this video!

4. Oh shut up… You complain and take tax money from people saying you need tourism and you need the money and now people show up in thousands and you want them not to be there…

5. An American right… wow white folks stay talking about ownership over land they stolen. No one should be on this land ruining it

6. Take away the railings and barriers, let natural selection take it's course.

7. Just let them do whatever either way the country is going down

8. Parks can limit attendance max for the day. Charge higher fees. Veterans get in free or reduced rates as they should.

9. Welcome to Disney Land for idiots that do Instagram

10. Honestly I feel like abc shouldn't have put the wave on this since it sounds like it isnt overcrowded until everybody watches this

11. Lol so is this really a problem aren't you all getting good revenue? I feel as long as they aren't littering and destroying the place they should be fine. Hire more rangers. They're use to not doing much work and not many visitors, like the lady said it was nothing like that in 2012

12. People have been dying by taking selfies close to a cliff. Let them

13. From the 419 and am embarrassed by whoever spray painted that rock. SMH

14. There are literally hundreds of giant buses full of Chinese tourists at both Horseshoe bend and the GC. Un-freaking believable.

15. I live in Roslyn in cascade mts.every weekend tourist crowd in to walk 2 blocks.the mt.bikers are great,they get out up to the vast forest but the rest liter,get drunk in the bars and yell and hollar when bars close,block driveways,park anywhere they want,walk their dogs and 0 pick up of poop.they have 0 respect for the locals.they invade our tiny safeway to stock up for camping instead of bringing supplies,steal flowers and plants from our cemeteries to decorate their vacation home for the weekend.its sick

16. I visited the grand canyon recently. I was so awe inspired by the landscape I forgot my phone in the car. Without it I noticed all these people being obsessed with themselves… I also noticed something else they didn't. THE FRIGGIN GRAND CANYON!

17. Talk about completely missing the point. I’m a photographer & one of the first things I learned was the importance of being present & that some sunsets & spectacular moments are meant to be enjoyed with your eyes & not through a viewfinder or phone. Even just taking one shot & then taking in your surroundings. I lived in Yosemite for years & it’s sad how beautiful places can get destroyed due to our avarice for attention & likes rather than our gracious acknowledgment of the beautiful planet we’ve been given.

18. This was before covid-19, imagine how bad it is now.

19. Instagarbage.

20. Leave the phones at home and enjoy the natural world.

21. Wow, these people suck. Egotistical trash

22. You could just kill them all

23. Wether I live near or across the country I have EVERY right to use PUBLIC property just like the next guy, whether I want to post it to social media or not is irrelevant.

24. They should campaign with commercials showing the destruction of the environment and deaths of people taking selfies. Partner with Instagram

25. That's why I stopped Facebook and Instagram

26. Or, you could just give us our land back…

27. I'm glad I'm ugly.

28. so "instagrammers" are shallow for promoting national parks which exist to protect nature? i dont understand what is so shallow or wrong about wanting to take pictures of places you travel to. i love hiking and being outdoors. what's wrong with taking my phone out a few times along the hike to get a good picture so i can always remember it? how is that related to harming nature or overcrowding parks? people without phones can do just as much damage. there's no correlation. it's up to the parks themselves to decide how many visitors is considered too harmful and to enforce limits and rules.

29. Just leave people alone, you idiots..

30. We need to stress leave no trace principles to the general public, especially since after covid these parks are seeing more traffic by people who think the world is their trashcan

31. Ok but whats the point of having something beautiful if u can't enjoy it

32. They should just start banning people who damage wildlife and nature and ignore the posted signs.
