The Most Dangerous (And Stupidest) Photos Ever Taken.

It takes passion and courage to capture spectacular and captivating photographs. Shutterbugs go to great lengths, often putting themselves in danger, to take at least one photo worthy of admiration.

From climbing an iceberg in Iceland to practicing yoga over a high and rocky cliff, there is nothing these adventurers will not do. Beautiful Destinations has shared some of its Instagram's followers' most incredible shots from around the world. These images may just be the push needed to be a little more daring when seeing the world through a camera's lens.

"Nestled deep in the woods on the eastern German border lies Rakotzbrücke. Its perfectly constructed arch allows the reflection to create a complete circle, mirroring the bridge and its surroundings to create the feel of a new world beneath the surface. Walking in the freezing cold through eerie forests and desolate villages to find this bridge made the whole experience one that will live in my mind forever."— @jacob

This image was taken at Monument Valley in San Juan, Utah. "Even after seeing hundreds of photos of this place, they still couldn't convey the thrill of seeing the sun rise on these giant pillars of rock ... When the sun broke over the horizon, I sat for a moment on the edge of the cliff, feeling small and yet a part of the landscape I was beholding." — @ravivora

"I wanted to capture a unique and exciting perspective of [Las Vegas] and shoot from the perfect angle. Taking all the necessary precautions with my new bride, we managed to access the rooftop from the famed Bellagio hotel and get the shot, adding another outstanding image to our FollowMeTo photo series." — @muradosmann

"'Big Drop Romance' was taken in Washington of my brother and his fiancé. She was terrified of the idea of hanging over the edge but decided to follow through with it. I shot this from above them, reaching out with a 14mm lens to capture as much of the moment as I could." — @isaacgautschiphotography

This photo was taken at Alberta's Abraham Lake, where methane from decaying plant life rises to the surface and becomes trapped under ice, resulting in these bubbles. "There's usually a seven-minute window every year to photograph them in the best conditions before snow or warm temperatures affect the lake. I've waited five years to photograph them in these conditions, trying and failing every year up until this year." — @calsnape

"It’s actually in New Zealand that people can see the clearest skies at night, so one day I decided to drive up to Cardrona Alpine Resort, 30 minutes away from Wanaka. I explored the slopes by foot, observing the stars with the resort’s chair lifts as a background—an extreme and memorable moment for sure." — @lebackpacker
