Good spot for one of your hazard tags!

We have Natural Bridge nearby
https://www.queensland.com/au/en/things-to-do/attractions/p-56b25f942880253d74c479de-natural-bridge-springbrook-national-park.html,
which is a hole cut in the roof of a cave by millions of year of rushing
water, making a waterfall.

Unfortunately, over the years, despite warnings not to swim in there, quite
a few people have drowned, as the force of the falling water pulls them
under & back, they can't see & so run out of air :-(

Thanks

Graeme
