    Deadly Selfie: 22-year-old falls down 50 feet ravine while clicking selfies | India News - Times of India[^] I've been to Dehradun and Mussoorie, and can vouch that some of the valleys there have "breathtaking" views. I suppose some take it too literally. PS: Submitted to Darwin Awards. [Will be Cross-posted in GIT]

        Falling whilst taking a selfie is one of the biggest causes of selfie related deaths worldwide. Not in India though, apparently there is more risk of being hit by a train whilst taking a selfie, I'm not sure how a train gets into a 50 foot ravine though.

            Never, else you'd end up liking the two TV farts "Sherlock" and "Elementary". It would have been painful for the other one to trace back the path on the same set of footprints.

                          Its best we don't discuss it on a public forum, somebody will steal the idea. I just had an idea for an App too, but I would need to go to the Trumpbox to share it.
