LoL. I guess that goes to show that anyone who actually takes the time to research selfies and write an article about it, can't count.Soi Dog wrote:ummm...make that 9.10 Selfies Taken Moments Before Death

Re: 10 Selfies Taken Moments Before Death
Interesting, and tragic. The first pic reminds of a documentary about guys who travel around walking along pylons and hanging off buildings. I can't remember what the craze is called. Anyone know?

There were also several failed attempts.Soi Dog wrote:ummm...make that 9.10 Selfies Taken Moments Before Death

#6- Shot himself before the photo was taken.
#7- Drowned whilst attempting to take a selfie by a lake.
#8- Was electrocuted whilst climbing on top of a train. No photos taken.
#10- Photo failed due to falling.
It's almost as if cambod posted this without even reading the article.

I thought #3 was apt. Singing along to 'happy' whilst being completely oblivious to the world around you and cheerfully crashing into other road users.
Scarier than malaria.

And #1...the actual fatal selfie was attemtped at night, suggesting the pic shown was an earlier shot.

Selfie addiction is the scourge of the 21st century.
What little self-confidence and self-esteem one must have to feel the overwhelming need to obtain others' approval through perfect and sensational depictions of oneself?
