Video shared to the 'Tourons of Yellowstone' Instagram account showed a barefoot child climbing on some rocks near Gibbon Falls.

Social media users slammed parents at Yellowstone National Park for being “tourons” (tourist + moron) after video footage showed a child in danger near a raging river in a national park.

The original video was posted by Instagram user Abbey Morales (@itsabbeyhollaaa) and was shared by the Tourons of Yellowstone (@touronsofyellowstone) page, which features the wild behavior of mindless tourists in national parks.


The alarming clip showed the unsupervised child wearing a yellow shirt and red shorts in a potentially dangerous situation, climbing barefoot on rocks near treacherous waters.

Morales' caption was shared by @touronsofyellowstone, which read:

“I honestly thought that kid might be swept away and drowned! Also, he was barefoot!”

You can see the clip, below.


Many viewers were outraged by the filmed footage, citing parental negligence.

Other users shared their concerns.

One user alleged the boy was near the Gibbon River and at the top of Gibbons Falls, which is an 84-foot waterfall.

They continued:

"It is illegal If the rangers have to risk their lives to save someone for their stupidity, turbulent water and the drop in the waterfall Definitely, the parents should be reprimanded profusely for allowing this to happen."
The Tourons of Yellowstone has more than 1,000 posts.

Many of them feature tourists, often in large groups, getting dangerously close to wild animals in order to snap a photo up-close or take selfies.

GOP Senator Gets Blunt Reality Check After Comparing Trump Tariff 'Pain' To Home Renovation

Montana Republican Senator Tim Sheehy was criticized after he tried to compare the "short-term pain" of President Donald Trump's tariffs to home renovation, a claim so ridiculous that CNN's Kaitlan Collins quickly pushed back on the analogy.

Trump has repeatedly referred to April 2 as “Liberation Day,” pledging to impose tariffs—taxes on imports—to reduce U.S. reliance on foreign goods. He has framed these tariffs as “reciprocal,” aiming to match the duties other nations place on American exports.

Liberal Wisconsin Judge Calls Out Elon Musk In Victory Speech—And It's Everything

Liberal judge Susan Crawford called out billionaire Elon Musk in her victory speech after winning a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, basking in successfully beating her Republican opponent Brad Schimel and ensuring that the nonpartisan court’s narrow 4-3 liberal majority remains intact despite Musk's efforts to sway the race.

Musk fueled the high-stakes race, having poured more than $20 million into supporting Schimel, according to state campaign records. That includes $3 million to the state Republican Party—$2 million of which was donated just last week. Due to state election laws, large contributions must be funneled through political parties before reaching candidates.
