Whilst in France recently we decided to take a cable car up a terribly high mountain as demoed below:

It was most exhilarating and somewhat reminiscent of a Bond movie, as we neared the top I was half expecting Jaws to come crashing through the roof of the gondola. Anyway despite being quite taken with the info graphics used I was somewhat alarmed by the signage shown below:

Firstly as if you need to say that; only a fool would do such a thing.

Secondly said fool probably wouldn’t have thought of such an amusing ruse until prompted by such clear visual communication.

Signage as ‘Red Rag to a Bull’ in my opinion.
