mj.scuba Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 I'm not talking about round the world, more when there is a bad flood in the UK. Do any operators take people to these areas to tour and observe people as they deal with whats happened when a flood or hurricane has struck? If not, I may be setting up a company called "disaster tours" renting out a mini bus a going to these areas. With Climate Change causing wilder weather patterns, there has to be a market for people to leer at others misfortune We don't get hurricanes in the UK, apart from the Battle of Britain type.

AJ sheffield Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Not sure if it was just a myth but I read somewhere you could pay and go on a hunting trip to Bosnia/Croatia when the war was on and hunt civilians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purdyamos Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Not sure if it was just a myth but I read somewhere you could pay and go on a hunting trip to Bosnia/Croatia when the war was on and hunt civilians. I went several times after the war had ended but most people I mentioned it to thought the war was still raging and that I was *brave* even as late as the mid 2000's because 'people keep getting shot all the time'. Much of the coast was repaired by the time I got there but Mostar in B&H was still a mess. I wasn't there voyeuristically (I hope) but it was a sobering life lesson seeing it all nonetheless - just as the Iraq war started, which was a bit of a headf***. It was at least refreshing to go somewhere where your tourist money was genuinely needed and the welcome was genuine rather than jaded. And yes, in one of the local magazines I read-for-gist that people had gone there during the war on mercenary adventures. I hope the experience made them grow up, even if that had to happen the hard way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
