A couple believed to be from Britain and Australia have fallen to their death from a wall overlooking a popular tourist beach in Portugal, apparently losing their balance after taking a selfie....The ultimate selfie.
Rui Pereira da Terra, the head of the rescue service in Cascais port near Lisbon, told the news agency Lusa that officials suspected the man and woman had been taking a selfie on a wall above the beach when they fell.[Agence France-Presse]
To die like a throwaway slapstick scene in a summer rom-com movie, how tragic and meaningless.
ReplyDelete“Other tourists have been reported to have fallen off the beach wall.”
DeleteHope the authorities finally erect a guard rail.
