Sometimes I run across a story just so amazing, just so good, that I want to write a sermon just so I can find a way to tell the story. Such is this one. A taste:
PHOENIX (Reuters) – A man survived with injuries after driving his car over the south rim of the Grand Canyon by accident, authorities said on Wednesday.
The unidentified driver, aged 21, was treated for nonlife threatening injuries in a Flagstaff hospital on Monday after plunging 200 feet over the lip of the mile-deep chasm, a spokeswoman for the Grand Canyon National Park said.
He landed in a tree.
I don’t think they are making this up. Just HOW one drives one’s car off the rim of the Grand Canyon is, of course, the question of the hour.
Rebecc
I actually think it wouldn’t be hard. In many places there are trees that grow right up to the rim and if you were driving off-road or something like that you could easily go right to the edge. If you are not paying attention, are under the influence or controlled substances or it is dark, it would be even easier.
