One thing that always struck me as strange was the liability from tresspassers for "natural" conditions. I mean there are good reasons for laws against boobytraps or other active threats but it seems insane when disused quarries are ringed with /barbed wire/ to prevent lawsuits from fools diving into it.
I wonder why "assume your own risk" for any sort of casual tresspassing (as opposed to say fringe circumstances where it would be legally justifird as the lesser evil) hasn't been a legal standard. I guess kids falling down the proverbial well set the precedents for everyone.
