Another young woman died while climbing to a height that was too high to take a photo, more precisely she climbed to the top of a lighthouse to take what she thought would be a perfect selfie. Unfortunately, he fell from a height of 91 meters and died on the spot.
Pranita Mehta was 21 years old and went with a group of friends to Gokarna beach in India. The law student climbed to the top of the lighthouse in the area to take a "perfect selfie" with her smartphone. He fell, however, on the rocks at the base of the structure, then into the water. Her friends called for help in vain because they had nothing else to do except to pull her out of the water to the shore.
It seems that, in India alone, in 2015, 25 people died, more than in any other country, in selfie-related accidents. Earlier this year, Mumbai police banned selfies in 16 areas in an attempt to reduce the number of accidents.
According to an infographic made by Priceonomics, the main 3 causes of selfie-related deaths are: falling from a height, as in this case, drowning and accidents involving trains.
However, related to this incident, the family denies the fact that the student died trying to take a selfie...
