 Let it all out: Iceland welcomes your screamsFrustrated by the COVID-19 pandemic? Nearly everyone is, which is why people are finding increasingly creative ways to cope with isolation and stress. But, the country of Iceland has bigger plans than just encouraging people to read or exercise at home. Instead, it's inviting people from all over the world to scream into a microphone. As part of a “destress at home” campaign, participants can record their screams, send it to Iceland’s tourist board, and have the sounds played in pristine remote locations like over the Skogafoss waterfall. This might help people with pent up anger, but you gotta feel bad for the poor hikers and campers who will hear hundreds of echoing screams on their journeys through the mountains. Icelanders sure are generous. What would you rather do: Scream over a waterfall or scream “inside your heart?” Tap or click here to see a Japanese roller coaster where screaming isn’t allowed during the pandemic. → |
