The in-depth story of the Yellowstone's many scalding deaths. Beneath the stunning views of Yellowstone, with its simmering pools and erupting geysers, lies a history stained by the blood of people who never returned from the park. For over a century, victims have been boiled, dissolved, and left to haunt these volatile waters...

please dear god yall stop bringing your animals to yellowstone park
Honestly the only time that has worked to my knowledge was the reintroduction of wolves to the park
I couldn't agree more. Please, there are many places where dogs and other pet animals should not be!
Children too.

Bruh I am a teen and it's 2024 we are just made of stronger stuff that the wimps of the past! (Sarcasm)
Yeah, people seem to go about these days like they are the main character of their story that the world just happens to exist for and when that outlook collides with reality the results more often than not are always deadly.
"... the results 'more often than not' are 'always' deadly"?
It's a shame your generation doesn't seem to be taking education too seriously...
@56 LOL Which am I? I go on the internet for enjoyment not a grammar class, I left those behind awhile back and I honestly can't be bothered about my misspellings.
My point still stands, teenagers and those with silver spoons placed in their mouths often think both the rules and world will bend over for them, it doesn't.
I’m an animal lover (I have seven pets myself) but I would never take a pet to anywhere dangerous like Yellowstone. Pets do not belong anywhere near that place, it’s extremely irresponsible to endanger their lives like that.
I recently read an article in which they stated that a highly intelligent canine could be as smart as a two and a half year old child (they used a Border Collie as their example), but we'd never allow any tender aged child to run around freely at a place like Yellowstone, so we should know a lot better than to allow our pets to do so either.
Edited to add Border Collie.
@@IndyandJazmin exactly
Yea, That one guy wouldn't of passed if he didn't bring his dog or had it on a leash.
it was important to you know were an animal lover and have pets for this statement thank you for sharing /s
Its just a dog shut up
Imagine the moment as you fall in, scalded alive, searing excruciating agony. Just then, you may have realized "that was a stupid thing to do".
Too late.
It's like people that think it's cool to mountain bike down a cliff and then hit a rock that throws them over the handlebars and off the cliff into the void.
Hey, not everyone who dies tragically is stupid! Have some respect.
@@SuperTed.Did that strike a little too close to home, Ted? The OP didn't say that it was...
My water heater is set to 120 as I don’t want my child heavily injured if she screws up like my aunt did, when I accidentally hit the handle in the shower stall and it goes to full hot, I can’t move quick enough.
You aren't suppose to have a dog on any of the trails in Yellowstone. People take their "service dogs" anyhow.

What don't dog owners understand about KEEPING your pets on a leash? Put them on your dog BEFORE exiting any vehicle, it is not rock science.
@@CAHOBBES geology?
I think "rocket science" was the intended word😉
Dog owners are delusional assholes that think their diseased dogs that provide no benefit whatsoever need to go everywhere.
"Oh a warning sign? Well, I don't see my name on it, so it doesn't apply to me!"
ah yes, from a legendary cartoon where "this sign can't stop me because I can't read!"
Those are called "scarecrow signs". They only work providing the person is an obedient moral citizen that obeys the rules provided by society.
Ah, the old high backcountry Appalachian mindset, lol.
"You will die if you fall into the Geyser? Couldn't be me, I'm built different."
Ever get those packets that come with electronics that say DO NOT EAT? They're delicious.
Diving head first into boiling water is the very definition of Darwinism.
Exactly what I was thinking.
People having sympathy for such stupid decisions is why it keeps happening.
@@butterphli3z...it really isn't
@@dancoroian1yeah just stupid people doing Darwin things
@@dancoroian1Well, at least in your opinion...
@@IndyandJazmin it's a thoroughly stupid claim on its face. There are lots of reasons people do stupid things, ranging from mental illness to wanting to impress their peers to purely for internet clout (the most common). Or for none of the above in emergency situations like the one discussed here. That much is apparent.
However, I really struggle to imagine a scenario where _anybody_ debating whether or not to do something stupid/dangerous, is remotely convinced by the thought that "well people online will have sympathy for my idiocy" (which, in most cases isn't even true -- the internet is hands-down the source of the most vicious mockery risk-takers are bound to receive in most cases).
It's difficult for me to even imagine how/why anybody would be persuaded by this, but if you feel differently please feel free to elaborate!
As someone who died at Yellowstone, I found this documentary fascinating
Praying for your health
So if I ever show you your obituary, will you disintegrate into dust?
@@grapeshotno, that would create two of me
RIP, you. I'm glad you're dea-- I mean, I'm glad you... survived?
I always leave donations in "hope you feel better soon" cards at funerals.
The fact that people think it's safe to let their dogs off leash in wilderness areas blows my mind.
I live in Florida, and the number of dogs you hear about getting eaten by gators is depressing. EVERY BODY OF FRESH WATER HERE HAS GATORS! EVEN DITCHES AND RETENTION PONDS! Idiots.
What don't dog owners understand about KEEPING your pets on a leash? Put them on your dog BEFORE exiting any vehicle, it is not rock science.
My dogs are leashed in the car, to the headrest poles. I take the headrest out of the seat, put the leash through the rods then stick it back in the seat. They cannot get loose.
It's more of a stick science...
@@IndyandJazminI thought it was a paper science
... you mean rocket?
It's harder than rocket science, apparently. It's like music theory.
Parents let their kid run into a hot spring and then sue the park... Ok
Nothing more American than refusing to take responsibility.
@@LikaLarukufailing to pay court ordered child support is judged no. 1.
I live on Mount Desert Island in Maine, home of Acadia National Park. Every couple years or so we have someone die in a part of the Park called thunder hole because they go past the railings to get a better picture and they fall in and get slammed against the rocks by the water.
And sucked out to sea
@@TommyTombs not always
@@JonathanH1253true depends on the tide. I once saw Old Sow form and expand in Bar Harbor and it sounded like a freight train. It happened a lot quicker than expected and we were definitely a little too close for comfort
@@JonathanH1253Thunder Hole is like the ocean is shelling you constantly. Also very loud
@TommyTombs thunder hole can be loud when its stormy yeah, when the weather is calm it's kinda boring honestly, still wouldn't want to jump down there though.
Will never understand why you wouldn’t leash your dog near scorching hot pools 😢

@@CAHOBBESWere you attempting to win the most cut and posted comment on TH-cam Award with the whole "rock science" thing?
I’ve been to Yellowstone. There are many places around the boiling pools that my tour guide pointed out where you could still see foot prints of animals or humans that hard attempted to walk in them and told us stories like these as warnings.
wow that’s creepy 😣
w h y
Sad but I'm nearly sure the last story, the boy jumped in. No one can tell what happened but the fact the parents left theyre 9 year old unattended in such a dangerous place, theyre denial that it was intentional and suing the park, and unbiased witnesses stating he ran into the spring, it sounds like a neglected boy was failed by his parents.
That troubled me too, especially when they sued for better safety and more signage. If there had been warning signs, would they have corralled their kid better? I'm not a parent, but it feels like maybe they should have controlled him better in the first place.
Maybe they were the type of parents who let their son run wild and/or misbehave because "He's just a kid!" If they didn't warn him, maybe he thought it'd be fun to jump in the pool of water. But it does bother me that they sued the park. It's not a safe place, it's a wild place.
@daffers2345 I was thinking the same, erm you're the parent supposedly educating and steering your child In the right direction of right and wrong, sensible and downright stupid. I felt like a nervous wreck when my daughter was little, brain went into risk assessment overload 😂 so I would have had the child taped to me going there ffs 🤦♂️ Amazes me as I know how fear becomes 10 fold when you become a mum. Mines now 22 and I'm surprised I'm still here 🙃 😂
@@nancymoore9952 Never had kids myself, but Im 50 now, and my mum tells me, it never goes away. She still worries about my brother and I. "Drive safely", "Call when u get to ur hotel" (on vacation) etc.
@@daffers2345 I am a parent, and if my kid fell in and boiled to death, I'd sue myself because my number one job as a parent is keeping them alive. That's no one else's responsibility but mine, and I took it on when I decided to have a kid. It's the same as these people letting their dogs run off leash and the dog jumps in and dies. You are the responsible adult who knows how dangerous it is, children and dogs do not. If you're going to take them to a dangerous place, YOU keep them safe.
Yeah ih he was jumping into the water why didn't his parents warn him before that it's dangerous and he can't swim there or otherwise not take him to such a dangerous place if they can't control him.
I can’t imagine burning and boiling to death. What a horrifying death
It’s crazy how so many of them died because they did not follow instructions or did not heed warnings… l
You know what this has taught me? That I don't have to ever see Yellowstone. Nor do I need to go to any hot spring or anything like that. Because, burning myself on the stove is enough for me.
You know there is no requirement of jumping in there when you visit.All you have to do is control your primal instincts
@@GrumpyDynamoyour primal instinct is to off yourself?????
I do wanna visit it one day since it seems very beautiful. Just follow the rules, heed all warnings, and use common sense. And DEFINITELY don't bring any pets near the hot spring pools.
I can’t imagine how scary and stressful these situations must have been, while I would never bring my dog to a place like Yellowstone, I do feel for the people who have lost pets in the geysers/jumped in to save them. It would be unthinkably traumatic to watch your dog essentially melt in the pools or if your child fell in? You’d either jump in to save them from what would be immediate burns all over their bodies and yours or you sit there and watch that child boil to death essentially. Or you manage to save the person/dog who fell in and then you just have to watch their skin peel off their bones
Only an idiot would bring a pet or child to a place like this and let them run wild, though. Yes, it's tragic, but it is easily prevented with some common sense.
I’ve never been there but in every picture there is steam coming off don’t people know that steam means very hot? The dogs should be on a leash. Always leash your dog you never know Yellowstone has bears, wolves, bison, chemical pools, boiling pools. Sounds very dangerous to even bring a dog. Very sad preventable tragedies. My brother worked there a few years and said every year people get mauled by bison and bears too and they ignore the warnings given by the guides
Collin Scott's case I find no sympathy. His ignorance cost him his own life. In fact, there have been recent cases of tourists acting real stupid in Yellowstone.
And 'there have been plenty of cases of past tourists acting real stupid in Yellowstone' as well, but I don't know how that's supposed to mean or affect anything?
@@IndyandJazmin pretty sure they are saying that it is going to happen AGAIN.
Imagine burns so bad you get Midjourney hands.
Can only imagine how many bodies disappeared in these vents, and not by accident.
Too many
Yep huge mafia presence in the middle of nowhere Montana/Wyoming/Idaho.
Looks like it is the biggest natural soup pot in the world.
If I ever I went I'm gonna bring a backpack filled with Cajun seasoning and butter so if I slip at least there's free soup
@chrisg7059 Good thing the wildlife hasn't been all that upset with the lack of flavor/taste, well, so far, lol.
I think the broth has been sufficiently spoiled.
Have just a little respect
@@cathyjresindesigns Sure thing, karen, lol.
Took a 19 day backpacking trip through Yellowstone. Needless to say it was amazing, but also one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. Almost had a Bison run over our tent one night. Did multiple peak climbs with absolutely unreal views. Heard wolves, saw rams, and a giant moose. I’ll never forget seeing the milky way at night. You can’t just go to Yellowstone to see it, you have to go out in the back country. A trip that will stick with anyone for a lifetime.
No flashlights are pretty dumb.
Really? I find flashlights to be quite helpful, especially at night (lol).
My parents took my sisters and me on a long driving vacation that included Yellowstone back when we were little. We may not have understood the dangers behind the beauty, but we sure knew what would happen if we disobeyed our parents! I'm not sure why people would disobey the warning signs, they're there for a reason.
I'm glad my parents never took us to Yellowstone. They still talk about when 4 year old me went under a guard rail and ran straight at Niagara Falls. They really should have gotten a child leash, if those were available in the early 80s.
Signs exist for a reason. Even so, going to chalk this up to one of the top 3 reasons never to visit Yellowstone.
I’m shocked anyone would attempt to willingly jump in
Video should be titled: When making st*pid choices ends fatal.
Breaking news: jumping into boiling death pit leads to death.
Wouldn't apply. Couple of the stories involve people falling in because it was too dark to see where they were going.
Ain’t no way bro censored “stupid” 💀😭
@@Wx140It's a Google self censor deal. He probably used that word one too many times in flagged/removed posts in the past.
Don't bring my dog near scalding pools or geysers of water. Gotcha.
Either been selfless, reckless, careless, or being stupid. They must know how dangerous those hot thermal pools in Yellowstone (which is a supervolcano by the way). Overall, being scald to death REALLY made me shiver in fear.
I was there in Sept. 1994 and had no problem since I stayed on all trails.
I work in Yellowstone, and every year there's always some dumbass who thinks they can touch grizzly bears, pet wild buffalo, or swim in the acidic hot springs despite warnings from myself and the locals.
Evolution in action...
As someone who has binged the white vault, I appreciate more people talking about it. It’s really amazing and creepy!
Absolutely horrifying :/ I would never risk leaving a safe path at yellowstone
With my luck I’ll go there, heed all the warnings, avoid the pools, see some sights and then the volcano will erupt.
I bought two used large books describing all of the deaths at Yellowstone and Yosemite . Most are car accidents while the Second are drowning.
I appreciate the fact you added the fate of the pets, as heartbreaking as they are!
Ignore warnings, ends up dying. Parent's "I'LL SUE!!!" and wins. A society that rewards stupidity will never last.
Agreed
Sounds like the 70 year old man might not have known the actual temperature of the spring, so he dipped his feet in and they quite literally, started melting away causing him to fall which started his entire body to burn away rapidly enough to where there was no saving himself.
People dumb. I still remember the news broadcast of that joke of a mother who put her toddler on the rails over the African Wild dogs in the zoo. Those things are gnarly. Kid would have had a better chance in the lion enclosure. Didn't stop her tho.
Someone put their 1 year old in the oven last week, America huh
You should do a video like this on Niagara falls
my man had 100% of his body covered in third degree burns. you just never hear that
Kinda eerie how at 1:00 the terrain very loosely resembles the shape of a skull

Glad you're still posting
If youve never seen the water at yellowstone its hard to understand why people get so horribly hurt in it. As a wyo native ive been there a bit and the water is so clear and clean looking that it just makes you want to go in. Atleast thats how i always felt stand next to a pool and you can see 30,40,50? Feet down to the bottom, its really deceiving... i feel bad for the ones who lost pets and went in after them. I can only imagine id probably go after them without thinking about it as well.
All i can say is if you go there, stay tf out of the water, keep your pets on a short leash, the animals there are wild and theyll stomp you without hesitation
What a horrible way to go, 3rd degree burns destroy nerve endings so there's that... small comfort that it may be.
People can be so stupid. "Yeah, they warned me not to do it, they tried to stop me but I forced passed them, they even put up signs that I ignored and safety barriers I bypassed, but none of that's important; I'm still suing because I got hurt."
The dogs cant be blamed for jumping in. Its tragic, aye.. but the dogs just think its swimming time upon seeing large bodies of water.
Jumping in after them is equal parts stupid as it is brave..
BUT FOR THE LOVE OF WHATEVER DEITY YOU BELIEVE IN.. the warning signs are there for a reason and you should know by the time you're going there that you SHOULDNT jump into the boiling water. Heed the warnings. Dont go beyond the railings. AND DONT JUMP INTO THE BLOODY POOLS. If you still do, honestly.. ..if the pools wouldnt get you, something else would've gotten to you sooner or later regardless.
Honestly I would probably jump in after a beloved pet regardless. YES it's a stupid decision, YES the pet will probably die anyways, but I'd never be able to live with myself afterwards knowing I'd just watched them die such an agonizing death. I'd die at peace, knowing that their last sight wasn't just me standing by as they went below the water
@@mandie492 oh I'm not mad at the ones who tried to save their pets, I'm genuinely impressed by their selflessness and resolve
But the rest who just went in for whatever other reason.. just.. just why x_x
@@shoulderpyro yeah that one is just darwinism
@@shoulderpyroWell said 👏 equal parts care and caution
NPS put walkway paths and clearly marked signs/paths for a good reason…people need to follow them as it’s not that hard to.
Maybe they need a sign stating “22 people have died here, so be careful” Maybe they should put photos of all the people - the kids, who have died, and the dogs.
RIP Moozy. I too would've died for my dog, they really shouldn't allow dogs in there.
much better title and thumbnail, good update. the first one really put me off because it looked so AI generated and wasn't the feel of the channel
Should be mandatory to watch before entering the park. May they all rest in peace. Condolence to their loved ones.
I agree. We go through a lot just to obtain a driver's license as teens.
I think the touristy nature of the park gives people a false sense of safety no matter how many warning signs there are. When I went there, I saw people step over railings or jump off elevated wooden walkways to get better photos even though one of these deadly incidents happened just a couple months before. Also saw people get way too close to Bison crossing the road.
People need to understand they need to keep their pets away from volcano
Is it just me, or does that thumbnail look AI-generated?
Just you
Didn't ask
Quite a few images here do but *shrug*
I am almost positive it is, and that’s gross.
I was just thinking the same thing.
200F boiling sulfuric acid, under hydrostatic pressure, won't be dangerous at all...I still don't know how I survived my youth.
I'm seriously curious how one can "stumble into" a scalding pool of water. Like won't you sense that you're getting close to heat source? Isn't there a cloud of steam rising from those lakes? Like...I don't understand.
Heard one story where a girl was boiled alive and 2 guys got serious burn, the families tried to sue the park... they lost as they should because they clearly left the marked path
I visited - it’s beautiful. I had no urge to approach the hot springs beyond suggested boundaries. Burns aren’t vacation worthy.
There was this one guy way way way back who was visiting with his wife and was shot in the head by some native Americans that the group had previously crossed/antagonized. He was left to die and his wife kidnapped. After coming to be encountered another group of natives (this was back when the US government was in armed conflict with the natives) and he was shot several more times and robbed of his food. Bleeding out in the snow.
Some American soldiers came across his body and shocked to find he was still alive. They gave him medical treatment but were pulling out of the region. They left him supplies and left.
This entire time his wife believed him dead. She was rescued by some soldiers at some point. Years later the husband recovered (unclear if in a coma) and eventually he found her. The first thing they did?
Went hiking on the trail where this all went down. They lived happily ever after.
Listen, listen, I……… kind of get people that fall/jump/wade into the hot water sometimes. like have you ever been at the edge of a big cliff or rock and suddenly realized you’re not scared of falling, you’re scared you’ll jump? not suicidally but impulsively? i get like that around big dangerous things too, like waterfalls and stuff. i could totally see how someone overwhelmed by their surroundings and slightly less functional than society thinks they are would give in to the call of the void, then reap the consequences unexpectedly.
Best way to avoid death by boiling, don't go near the place.
Yup. That cured it for me never going there!

david alan kirwan’s story sounds like something straight out of a horror movie
he changed the thumbnail, i can live in peace again
What was before it?
I rmbr the first time I went to NZ I was amazed at how many times I stumbled upon these geographic formations... several boiling spots in beach sand, in semi-wooded areas with housing and thought: how do kids survive here??! dangerous!
I remember reading a news story long ago about a dad who walked like 15 feet off a marked path and posed for a picture next to a tree, his wife took a picture and then the ground beneath dude gave way and him and the tree fell into a boiling pool and he died in that pool and they couldn’t get him out cuz the tree covered a large part of the hole … oof
So yeah, stay on marked trails 😅
Don't go into the water...sharks in the water
For anyone using normal units, the springs mentioned are 85 to 95 degrees
STAY ON THE PATHS!
The White Vault is frickin amazing people you need to hear it ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
lol, thanks for the new thumbnail.
As someone who loves hot tubing at the springs I can confirm it's too much for some people.
That thumbnail really is something.
Curious to the taste of this water by now..
When I went to Yellowstone me and my friends would constantly joke about falling into water and dissolving
Maybe don't bring your dog or just don't go to Yellowstone in general any more.
The first sponsored (?) ad that I'm actually interested in. Shoo, shoo, BetterHelp and Raid: Shadow Legends! I wanna hear the podcast.
140 degree water? Thats way over boiling point...
It's 140 degrees Fahrenheit (deg F).... not 140 degrees Celsius (deg C). Water boils at 212 deg F or 100 deg C. Hot water is considered to be dangerous and scalding to humans above 120 deg F. We in the US unfortunately don't use metric units as primary units of measure.
This is what yogi bear never told us about
I don't even like hot tubs, let alone being near those hot springs.
Another place my clumsy ass doesn't belong 😂😂😂
As Jason (John Ales) said in The Nutty Professor: "Oh man, this is Freddie Krueger shit, man!"
they need to put up warning pictures to let folk see & know what will happen to them.?
the white vault 100% recommend you would listen it
Rules exist for a reason
Whoaaaaa🙏🙏🙏🙏
Your videos give me the most dread. There are so many tings that are just bigger and stronger than humans, to the point of them just having an off-day could kill hundreds of ous
13:05 wow, what a god what a god
I got command grabbed by a FrostClaw and tossed in to the boiling pool as well, i can relate.
Wow
the old thumbnail for this (non stickman) was spooky lol
That thumbnail though
Apart from the old guy, everyone else was a doofus.
Sadly I think even if the pets were pulled out sooner and survived the initial burns, the long and torturous process of recovery for burns that severe would be too much to put an animal though. I just can't imagine any sort of good outcome there...even knowing that, I still can't say I wouldn't try going after my dog. No one ever thinks these horrific situation ls will happen to them.
I guess goes to show we're not all that different from the rest of the animals world. Advances as we are, we still end up literally diving in head first just like our pets do.
