Friends watch as man falls to his death taking selfie at tourist hot spot

Was a selfie worth all that?

NY Post reports friends watched on in horror as a man plunged to his death after attempting to take a selfie at a popular Australian tourist site.

The international student, said to be in his 20s, was “mucking around” with his friends when he fell 130-feet onto rocks at Western Australia’s notorious tourist hot spot, The Gap. He was then swept out to sea.

“We were new here, we don’t know about that, they had just gone taking pictures,” the man’s friend, Sahil Khenchi, told the Australian Broadcasting Company.

“We just can’t explain, he was one of our friends,” he said.
