Grand Canyon Cliff-Hanging Spoof Photo Goes Viral | Stuff.co.nz (http://www.stuff.co.nz/oddstuff/8003970/Cliff-hanging-photo-goes-viral)
This you have to see...the kid is a real character...
An American woman who sent a joke photo of her near-death experience at the Grand Canyon to scare her mother has become a viral hit. Samantha Busch got her boyfriend to snap a picture of her apparently about to slip from the edge of a cliff in the canyon.
She then posted the photo to Reddit (http://www.reddit.com/r/funny/comments/138t2s/mom_was_worried_about_my_trip_to_the_grand_canyon/), with the caption: "Mom was worried about my trip to the Grand Canyon, I sent her this picture."
But she was in fact standing safely on a ledge out of shot. Busch says she was trying to teach her over-protective mother a lesson.
"For five days up to when we left, my mom had warned me about falling off the cliff or being blown off," she told ABC News.
"So when while I was there, I found a cool little spot that I could sneak into, and lean back and look like I am falling off, and I thought that would be a great picture to send back home to my parents."

Good title.
I thought Cliff Richard had topped himself.

Her mom is probably dead now from a massive heart attack.

Hank Marvin is walking backwards and forwards in a circular fashion, laughing his tits off and trying to get through to Jet Harris on the mobile.
I neally fell 80m backwards off an over hang whilst in the deep outback just hung on by my finger tips. I still have dream about it
Just the worst time for an earthquake, though.

Isn't this where Cyril comes in and snootily declares, "Oooh, it's got the word "viral" I'm out of here."?

(would be more believable)
Well there was a photo taken but unfortunately the camera was at the bottom of the cliff pointing up and suffered from strange brown rain obscuring the lens.
