Nice article on today's BBC website about fans reenacting the scene of Holmes and Moriarty at Reichenbach Falls:

Be sure to watch the video, which shows the actual falls--pretty cool for someone like me who'd never seen it before.  Oh, and a little bonus: A sidebar mentions Sherlock.

And...The New York Times published an abbreviated version of the same event:

No mention of Sherlock here, though, unfortunately.

Don't make people into heroes John. Heroes don't exist and if they did I wouldn't be one of them.
