Are their just dead bodies everywhere over there?

Is anyone at google monitoring these photos? I mean, I assume so since they blur faces, so COMMON!!

The number of homicides seemed really high to me, so I started looking into it. This is interesting and compares a bunch of countries, but doesn't include Brazil: http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/cri_mur_percap-crime-murders-per-capita.

That will be a good tool for vacation planning.

I am not surprised by Columbia. but yeah, I thought the murder rate posted seemed really high and didn't expect that for brazil.

Twice now, we've seriously considered a short trip to Bogata, and twice we've shot it down because of scary travel warnings. And I'm a person who thinks the US is overly paranoid in it's travel warnings and often ignores much of what is written. Columbia is still a scary place...although I do wish I just gave in to the whim and took my chances anyway.

A bunch of my co-workers went to Sau Paulo this summer, and they were planning a side trip to Rio. When the higher ups in our department found out about it, they were strongly discouraged not to go.

But why would Duran Duran lie to me?
