The organizer of the trip asked for a "certificate of life and death"

With the coming of summer vacation, many "donkey friends" began to post on the Internet to organize self-help tours. The reporter found a new phenomenon: most of the "donkey friends" who asked to participate in the activity signed an "agreement" and promised to bear the consequences if there was an accident. It is reported that this is to avoid disputes between the two sides in the future.

The organizer asked for a "certificate of life and death"

Summer vacation is coming, which is a good time for self-help travel.

The reporter saw it in the tourism QQ group, outdoor tourism forum and so on. There are many people who post online to find "donkey friends".

At a tourism forum, the reporter saw that a network programmer initiated a self-help tour to Yishui Grand Canyon. In particular, participants are required to sign a "life and death document", the main content of which is: if all kinds of accidents occur during the trip, they will be "born and died" and have nothing to do with the organizer.

Why do you want to sign such a "life and death document"? Organizer Chen Ming told reporters: "Because it is dangerous to organize activities such as drifting, I simulated a contract according to their agreement to organize mountaineering to remind everyone to raise their risk awareness and minimize the risk." The reporter found that there are still many self-help tour organizers on the Internet who also require participants to sign such a "declaration of life and death". Some organizers said that there have been cases in which donkey friends were in distress during the trip before, and their families all blamed the organizers. In order to avoid this situation, before going out, everyone talked about the danger of traveling and signed a "life and death" to reduce unnecessary disputes.

"Travel insurance" is rarely talked about.

"Have you ever thought about buying insurance when you travel?" The reporter threw this question to the tourists who traveled by themselves. "Why do you want to buy insurance? Isn't it good to play more places with the money for insurance? " Huang Xiaopeng, a citizen who often participates in self-help tours, said in an interview.

Although the premium of travel insurance is only tens of yuan, there are only a handful of people who are really willing to buy an insurance for themselves before departure. Ma Qianxin, the city's tourism service center, told reporters: "At present, 80% of the tourists in our city are self-help tourists, but most of these travelers are uninsured." What the reporter learned from major travel agencies is also not optimistic. At present, tourists who actively purchase travel insurance account for less than 5% of the total number of tourists.

Miss Zhang, who works as a tour guide, told reporters: "Although travel insurance has relieved the worries of tourists, there are still only a handful of buyers. The main reason is that most tourists have a weak sense of self-protection and are eager to save money. "
