Hawaii accidental travel deaths. Whats are some of the causes?

Question

Someone I knew died last week.

Answer 1

I'm sorry for your loss.
Deaths in Hawaii are the same as for other places, (car crashes, etc) plus a few extras.
While HI is generally a very lovely and safe place to live, the environment must be respected. Many tourists come and seem to think that because they are on vacation here, they are in some big theme park where they cannot get hurt. Actually, the thing that attracts people to come here, is that much of the environment is natural.
Kamai'ina teach their children at a young age to swim, to never go in murky water (which can not only attract sharks and other dangers, but hide them as well) to never turn your back on the ocean, wait and watch and understand the 'mood' of the ocean before going in. Visitors who are not such great swimmers will disregard all these rules, plus swim in places with strong currents and no lifeguards.
People wander off the hiking trails and sometimes are literally never found--despite the islands' relatively small size-- they can fall off a cliff in the mountains, down a lava tube, or wander aimlessly on the vast lava fields on the Big Island.
Some visitors think warning signs do not apply to them, and will go over protective fences etc to get that "perfect picture" . One person fell into the "blowhole" and got stuck and drowned--- others were killed by a rock slide at Sacred Falls due to carelessness and disregard for signs--- so many examples.
Then of course, there are water sports accidents, too much partying and no regard for safety, and even the crime-related deaths caused by being too casual and unaware of ones' environment (although actually deaths are rare--- robberies are common)
I doubt Hawaii has any more dangers than any other place where people go to enjoy themselves-- If people get careless, bad stuff happens--- and sometimes it happens no matter what you do to try to avoid mishaps.

Here's the crisis: 2 tremendously informed mothers and fathers in an condominium with one useless baby and twins, surrounded by way of peers and different travelers in a international motel.

Now, they ought to make a decision among calling the police or quilt up what occurred.

Overall, this might be an excessively complicated tale to promote to a jury.
