Brosnan gets in hot water for Yellowstone stroll

CASPER (WNE) — As James Bond, he had a license to kill — to go wherever and do whatever he wanted. Real life isn’t quite the same.
Actor Pierce Brosnan has been fined $1,540 for walking in a protected thermal area at Yellowstone National Park.
In November, Brosnan uploaded pictures of himself at Mammoth Hot Springs to Instagram. And, while he avoided falling into the springs’ 160-degree water – hot enough to kill most bacteria, quickly cause third-degree burns and perhaps poach an egg — Brosnan didn’t avoid some legal hot water.
Signs in the area warn visitors of the dangers of thermal features and state that visitors must remain on the designated boardwalks and trails, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Wyoming which charged Brosnan for his ill-advised stroll.
