A 22-year-old from Chicago, Illinois has seen an image she took to scare her mother go viral on the internet.
Samantha Busch had her boyfriend take a picture of her on the edge of the Grand Canyon, appearing as if she is about to plummet below.
Posting the picture on social networking site Reddit, Busch said: "Mom was worried about my trip to the Grand Canyon. I sent her this picture."
Busch explained to ABC News the reason for the picture, stating: "For five days up before I went on this trip, [my mother] was worried about us visiting the Grand Canyon, because 'people are dumb, they fall off, the wind blows over them the edge.'
"So when while I was there, I found a cool little spot that I could sneak into, and lean back and look like I am falling off. I thought that would be a great picture to send back home to my parents, who were worried about me."
