Few days ago I shared a story about a man who died from trying to have a selfie with a bear and the bear mauled him to death. Well another incident happened. The Darwin awards seemed like a curse that keeps on giving to the Millennials because another person died for a selfie. A college student slip and fall to his death for trying to do a selfie on a cliff. He took this risk so he will have a cool selfie with a beautiful view to share to his Facebook timeline. For the sake of being cool these young people will risk their lives just to look cool on social media. Yeah it is nice to have a picture on a beautiful scenery but not on the expense of your own life. This happened in Australia and here is the news clip
Friends of a man who fell more than 40 metres to his death in Albany - have revealed he slipped and fell while taking a photograph at the tourist spot "The G...

Or basic adobe Photoshop will be great too. They can make people believe they had been in places they can afford to travel to.

@mlgen1037 They only learn by experiencing things themselves, it seems.

I visited my cousin that lived in Esperance and then visited Albany on my way back to Perth in Western Australia. It seems like the Millennials will go to any length to do a selfie picture. These young adults are fools to put their life on risk just for a selfie photo. The selfie that wanted a close up picture with a bear was stupid. How about saying hello close up to a crocodile would be just as silly. It is easy to slip and fall when on a high cliff. There aren't any safety fences. A few times I have felt high winds in such places which makes a fall even more likely. I hope other selfie photo young folk learn from these deaths.

I have seen people having to do those stunts on the root top and record it only to film their own failure and plunge down several floors down

The victim is said to be a very intelligent student so what a waste of years of education.
