“Chilling Simulation Reveals the Gruesome Fate of a Man Who Dissolved in a Hot Spring—What Happened Next Will Shock You!”
Collin and his sister visited the park with the intention of “hot potting,” a practice where visitors seek out natural hot springs to soak in. However, the pair ventured into an unauthorized area near the Norris Geyser Basin in search of their perfect spot.
Yellowstone and its hot springs are particularly dangerous due to its features being preserved in their natural state, never intervened for tourism purposes

The geothermal waters of Yellowstone are highly acidic, mainly due to them picking up sulfuric acid as they rise from deep underground. It’s a process facilitated by microorganisms that break down hydrogen sulfide in the rocks and soil of the area.

The simulation, shared on Youtube by Zack D Films last Tuesday (August 20), illustrates the likely sequence of events that took place following Colin’s fall.
According to the author, the video was made to warn would-be visitors of the dangers of Yellowstone’s hot springs. The clip explains that the extreme temperatures caused extreme burns almost immediately, resulting in the young man’s death.

Officials have confirmed that Colin’s sister was recording on her cellphone when the tragedy happened, and that a complete video of the event is under their possession. The park service, however, has decided to not release the footage to the public out of respect for the family and friends of the victim.
