except for when it doesn't.  There was an incident with a steam excursion some years back where someone standing on a bridge took their photo, then ran to the other side to get a going-away shot, and was hit by a car.  They sued the group running the excursion.  Long story short, attractive nuisance was the end result and the organizing group settled.

Can't find it in a Google search.  Perhaps you'd like to prove that it's more than urban legend?  I'm not requiring it, just stating that attractive nuisance is pretty clear that it only applies to children, specifically those who aren't old enough to rationalize that the "attraction" has an inherent danger - such as an unfenced swimming pool  could lead to drowning.  Adults (at least those who are not compromised) are expected to be rational enough to understand those dangers.

At this point, I've said my piece and am not interested in venturing any further off topic.
