Edge Grand Canyon Almost Fell
Emily Koford, a 20-year-old from Texas, almost slipped and fell at the Grand Canyon after accidentally stepping off a ledge. She was hiking at the Arizona attraction on Monday with her mom Erin when they went to a rock near the edge of the rim for a photo. Erin Koford was standing near the edge when Emily began backing up with the camera, still facing her mom, trying to get a full-body shot. Read more for a video showing what happened next.



Emily Koford’s foot slipped off the ledge, onto a lower rock, but fortunately, she managed to catch her balance using her hands. The terrifying mishap was caught on video by Kevin Fox who noticed the two posing on the rock and wanted to show his kids “the stuff you don’t do.”
