Today’s Dizzying Yet Truly Morbid Fact!
On July 7, 1978, Bobbey Kay Kenrick, age 45, shuffled along the edge of a truly dizzying precipice in search of a perfect vantage point for a photo from Yaki Point at Grand Canyon . She lost her footing and fell over the edge 600 feet. Less than a year later, on April 8, 1979, Roger Sydnor, age 30, walked out on the Rim Trail near the Visitor Center for a dramatic dawn photo. Sydnor lost his footing on the rim and fell 250 feet.
