A viral, hyper-realistic YouTube thumbnail with a dramatic outdoor adventure atmosphere. The background is a raging, chocolate-brown Colorado River in full spring runoff crashing through red rock canyons with massive logs and strainers visible in the whitewater under stormy skies with dramatic golden hour side lighting. The composition uses a low dramatic angle to focus on the main subject: a bright orange Coast Guard-approved life jacket floating empty in violent water, half-submerged, straps floating like it's just been ripped off someone. Image size should be 3:2. The image features massive 3D typography with strict hierarchy: The Primary Text reads exactly: 'RIVER SAFETY RULES'. This text is massive, the largest element in the frame, rendered in dripping wet chrome metal with water droplets and realistic reflections to look like a high-budget 3D render. The Secondary Text reads exactly: 'THAT ACTUALLY SAVE LIVES'. This text is significantly smaller, positioned below the main text. It features a thick, glowing red outline with warning-tape style texture to contrast against the background. Make sure text 2 is always different theme, style, effect and border compared to text 1.
