You could not pay me enough money to sit in that pool. It scares the hell out of me.

I'd go in it, but no way in hell would you get me that close to the edge, at least not standing up like buddy takin that pic. My hands are sweating just thinking about it.

My luck and the cliff wall would give out as I got in the pool. On the bright side I can do a killer cannonball!

I don't really get it...the rocks are there, sure, but the water is still flowing fairly quickly over the edge. Would it not be pretty easy to just keep on going over the edge? Freaky stuff.

I think there is some sort of natural wall there, and only probably an inch of water. So You'd have to pretty much jump over to get off it, but I wouldn't tempt fate by doing a cannonball in or anything.

Uhhh...that freaks the S*** out of me. Surely the rock must be kinda slick with algae or whatever?? How the hell would you even wanna go close to that rock? And what's the deal with the morons putting their kids in there? I wouldn't want my kid even close to that pool!!
