And the best place to do it would be from a nice set of 100 foot high cliffs.

a fictional account of the "Big One Earthquake" expected in California when the San Andreas fault finally does its dance. I believe it was called, "The Last Days of the Late and Great State of California." In one of the chapters, there is a scenario about the surfers who gather at all the beaches to catch the Big Wave. So the author thought there were people that stupid back then.

Drove around the barricades the workers had just put up on the road because of high water. Drove right past the workers who were yelling at her to stop. And when her SUV got washed off the road, they could hear her screaming for help.
