Shoutout to @countchocula for this suggestion. 

Yorkshire River’s “Bolton Strid", England's "killer creek" is not something I had ever heard of. Upon reading about it however, this little creek or stream, which is only 6 feet across, is dangerous as all hell.

NY Times 

The Bolton Strid has all the charm of a picturesque country creek, burbling along among moss-covered stones in a wooded stretch of Yorkshire, England. Its banks are only about about six feet apart. But this particular stretch of water is also extremely perilous, with some locals claiming a 100 percent fatality rate for anyone unfortunate enough to fall in while trying to jump across it.

Much of the danger lies in how quickly the stream narrows.

The Strid is a segment of the River Wharfe, which runs past the tranquil ruins of Bolton Priory, an ancient monastery. A few yards upstream from the Strid, the river is shallow and wide, about 30 feet from bank to bank. But then the terrain squeezes the river so tightly that it is effectively turned on its side. Instead of wide and shallow, it becomes narrow and deep, a powerful wedge of water racing through a crevasse riddled with underwater caves and overhangs. This is the Bolton Strid.
