Well, at least the spokesperson assures us that they had the proper permits for an open fire and combustible materials. QUOTE They were hoping to conquer their fears by walking over a bed of hot coals. But instead, dozens of people participating in a Dallas event hosted by motivational speaker Tony Robbins were treated for burns. As a result of walking across coals, "a large number of these people sustained burn injuries to their feet and lower extremities," Jason Evans, a spokesman for the Dallas Fire-Rescue Department, said in a statement. Approximately 30-40 people were injured. Most elected to be treated at the scene, and five opted to go to a local hospital for evaluation. < Dozens Burned Durring Tony Robbins Motivational Exercise > If you want to do something outrageous to conquer fear, bungee jumping is probably safer, and you won't be limping for a week afterwords.

I don't really have the inclination to look it up as this story doesn't really matter that much to me, but I had heard on the radio (not sure if it was a bit or not) that some of them were getting burned cuz they were stopping to get selfies. (insert face palm emoji here)

Death by selfie steadily climbing up the ladder of leading causes of death.
