I hope I live long enough that I don't care what happens to me like this guy.

One of the benefits of getting old is that the whole "give a f**k" seems to go away, and you can just say or do whatever you want. I mean, who's going to stop you? And what do you really have to lose at that point?

And this guy really doesn't seem to care what happens after walking right up to a herd of bison in near Bridal Veil Falls in Oregon.

As a state with five national parks and plenty of beautiful and varied natural scenery, it makes sense why Utah is so popular amongst travelers. While one of the best ways to see the entire state is to hit all five national parks in one unforgettable road trip, you may want to also stray a little off the beaten path and check out some of the less-popular but equally-beautiful areas of the Beehive State. For example, you could head to Utah's Antelope Island for uncrowded beaches and incredible wildlife or even visit America's only pink salt lake. Furthermore, you could even head to some of Utah's gorgeous swimming holes like the one at the Fifth Water Waterfalls and Hot Spring.
