A woman who spent three days camping on a dangerous island has got some travel tips for you, should you feel compelled to put yourself in that sort of peril.
There are all sorts of dangerous spots in the world and for some intrepid travellers that's all part of the allure, provided they do actually make it back at the end of the trip.
'Danger tourism' is certainly a thing that exists, as for some the lack of safety the point, particularly if they're going not just for their own enjoyment but for an online audience.

Some travellers have managed to make a career of going around the world and sticking the results on YouTube, and part of the bargain is going to places most viewers wouldn't dare.
One of those giving it a go is Maddie Ryles, who took a trip to Australia's Fraser Island and camped there for three days.
Why is Australia's Fraser Island so dangerous?
Before going, Maddie was warned about the snakes and spiders, but told that most of the serpents would try to avoid human contact apart from the 'death adders'.

You wouldn't want to meet a death adder, as they have large fangs and are extremely venomous. We have antivenom now, but before that 60 percent of bits to humans were fatal.
Some of the spiders on Fraser Island are poisonous too, including a special variant of the funnel-web spider which is six times more venomous than other varieties, and has one of the most lethal spider venoms in the world.
There are also around 200 dingos on the island you're advised to steer clear of.
But the wildlife isn't the only thing you have to worry about...

Part of the reason for the island's deadly reputation is because the currents around the shores are strong enough to challenge even strong swimmers, while sharks and jellyfish can be lurking there.
Maddie said it looked like 'paradise' upon arrival and there were some bits which were fairly safe, but at one point she looked down to see a giant spider crawling up her leg.
Having made it through her trip, she told her viewers her advice for going to such a place.
Maddie's four tips for surviving Fraser Island
"My tips for you are to check the weather, and also probably bring warm clothes just in case," she said.

"Definitely bring insect repellent because there are bugs everywhere and just be extra, extra cautious especially when driving.
"But also don't let the fear of driving prevent you from actually driving."
She encouraged people to 'do things that scare you a little bit' and said you'd end up better 'as long as you make it out the other side'.
When travelling to parts of the world that are more dangerous than you're used to, it's always worth listening to the warnings people give you.
Another dangerous beach is on the other side of the world and it's incredibly popular with tourists despite the number of signs telling people they might die.
This is Iceland's Reynisfjara Beach, which is about as far as you can get from strolling in the sunshine and sand of Australia's Fraser Island.

People have died there in the past and there's an extensive list of rules in place to try and ensure you don't end up as the next victim.
That's because Reynisfjara has a dangerous phenomenon known as 'sneaker waves' which are so named because they don't appear to be all that different to regular waves until they hit the beach, suddenly overwhelming people with their power.
Among the survival tips for tourists is advice to stay far away from the shore and keep the hell away from wherever the waves are landing, and to especially never turn your back on the sea.
