6The Grand Canyon, USA

The Grand Canyon, one of the most famous natural landmarks in the world, is a breathtaking sight. Spanning over 277 miles, with depths reaching over a mile, it attracts millions of visitors annually. However, the sheer scale and ruggedness of the canyon also make it a perilous destination.

Around 12 people die each year at the Grand Canyon, mostly due to falls, dehydration, and drowning in the Colorado River. Many accidents happen when tourists venture too close to the edge for that perfect photograph or underestimate the difficulty of hiking in the intense heat. The combination of steep drops, loose rocks, and extreme temperatures can turn a scenic adventure into a deadly encounter.
