And that's not the Snake River Canyon.

California man dies after hurtling 400 feet across river in his 
Mercedes after 100 mph police chase


https://www.cbsnews.com/news/fresno-california-man-dies-hurtling-400-feet-across-river-in-his-mercedes-after-high-speed-police-chase/ 



Investigators estimate he was traveling at over 100 mph and did not 
try to stop before his silver Mercedes sedan launched over the river.

Another fool who thought that what he saw in movies was real?
Sounds like he cleared the river OK.  Too bad he didn't realize
that there is more to it than that.

Yes, the only tragedy is that he ruined a nice car.  And several
good peoples' day.

Usually "absolute tragedy" = "I don't know how to spell 'atrocity'".
Don't ask me why it was used in this instance.
