Two Men Fall Down Cliff While Playing 'Pokemon Go' - 2 views

  •  
    Two men fell off a cliff Wednesday in San Diego's North County while playing "Pokemon Go," the Encinitas Fire Department confirmed. San Diego Lifeguards reported that someone had fallen off a cliff at E Street around 1:12 p.m. When the Encinitas Fire Department arrived, they found a man around 80 to 90 feet down the cliff, on the beach. Be aware of the surroundings while playing this game! Safety first!

    I saw this story earlier. Pretty crazy! Those cliffs are dangerous, people fall off them several times a year.

    This game is definitely taking the nation by storm. Check out this article about a girl getting hit by a car while playing. http://www.gamespot.com/articles/15-year-old-hit-by-car-after-playing-pokemon-go/1100-6441810/

    There definitely are some crazy things happening with Pokemon Go. Not sure that I want to get involved!!

    I think it's really important that the players understand that it is just a game! And don't be too engrossed in it that he or she just forgot everything about safety.

    I just wish I could play it. It is only available in one remote city in South Korea due to antiquated laws dating back to the Korean war.

    As an avid pokemon fan I definitely tried the game out. I wasn't super impressed by it. I think most of the mobile phone apps are too simple for me to enjoy playing regularly. I will say that people getting hurt while engaging with them seems to be on the rise. Maybe there should be some sort of a warning when these games boot up. Something along the lines of "PLEASE LOOK WHERE YOU ARE GOING" might be helpful. lol.

    "Augmented reality, which is better than reality" - made me laugh! This was an interesting take on Pokemon Go, and I appreciate that he said that we as educators shouldn't focus on the technology of it, but what it unlocks in the person using it. Thanks for sharing!

    This quote stuck out to me "Education doesn't happen to students, but inside them. I can't remember where I heard that, but it's true." So VERY true! It's an internal process. Very cool article.
