The riskiest things you can do on vacation

  • A glass bridge panel in Indonesia broke on October 25, killing a tourist.
  • Risky tourist attractions like mountain climbing and underwater cave diving have caused deaths, too.

A glass panel fell from a suspended glass bridge in Indonesia on October 25, killing a tourist, Insider reported.

The popular tourist attraction in the Limpakuwus Pine Forest was 32 feet above the ground and authorities accused the construction company that made it of using thin glass that wasn't tested for safety, per the article.

In the past, other glass bridges around the world have caused safety concerns as well. In May 2021, wind shattered glass panels on a bridge in China, leaving a man stranded on the structure.

But walking across glass bridges isn't the only daring activity people might do while traveling. Here are the activities that can be dangerous — and even deadly — for tourists.
