Visitors from across the world travel to experience Death Valley's scorching heat

Get a flat tire and need to personally change it and see how much you "like" it :face-fuchsia-tongue-out:

It’s called Death Valley for the reason of? Some air conditioning in cars, will stop at 128... also helicopters cannot fly in heat like this. Hottest place on earth can be hell in a few minutes.

“But it’s a dry heat.” So is fire.

Why??? We live in Las Vegas, Nevada. Crazy! Why would anyone want to experience it??

WHY!!! Edit: I found out why. "They do it for the gram" 1:13

I went last July. When the thermometer in front of the visitor center was showing 133°

Why would you do that? If your car breaks down you’re dead….

I have worked/lived in Death Valley four different times. I personally saw 132 degrees (twice) at Stovepipe Wells. Back when Death Valley was still a National Monument and not a National Park yet, the visitors that I saw in the winter, were mostly Americans. In the summer, Death Valley would turn into a ghost town. The place was completely empty all summer long. But ever since they made Death Valley a National Park, the visitors are now a mix of Americans and Europeans in the winter. In the summer, it is almost entirely Europeans and busy as heck! The reason for this change? A lot of European tourists who visit the United States want to see National Parks, period. Most of them do zero research on where they are going or what to expect. All they know is that it is a “National Park”, and therefore it must be very scenic. I was calling the paramedics almost daily for cases of heat exhaustion as well as heat stroke for European visitors in the summer. I have no sympathy whatsoever for fools who go into ANY desert in the summer with no preparation or information whatsoever. Another common practice for European visitors to the United States that has been gaining in popularity lately, is to rent a Harley Davidson (along with all of the protective leather clothing), and play biker while cruising America’s National Parks. I could always spot these wannabes, as they were the ones with faces looking like lobsters and begging for water!🤣

Why on earth would anyone WANT to go there during a historic heatwave

Lived and worked in furnace Creek for 2 years in the late 80s. Daytime is no fun during the summers.

If you go up in your attic, you’ll get a similar effect.

I grew up in Trona, the last stop for gas and water before heading to Death Valley. This desert will kill you if you disregard the warnings... during the day, as well as after dark. Tread carefully 🔥🥵

I used to drive to Yuma every week for 6 years , the summers got up to 120 and people LOVE it . Weirdos

You could've saved all that money just put your head in the stove. 😂 Only in America do you see people traveling to get to the hottest state in the nation just so they can say they've been there. 😂😂😂

Going to Death Valley during April was hot enough for me…

This is what natural selection looks like folks!

Whats the current body count in death valley this summer?

Our economy is struggling with uncertainties, housing issues, bad weather conditions,foreclosures, global fluctuations, and the pandemic aftermath, causing instability. Rising inflation, sluggish growth, and trade disruptions need urgent attention from all sectors to restore stability and stimulate growth.

Here, the Grand Canyon, or South Mountain in PHX, it's mostly state/int'l tourists who die. They underestimate nature.
