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.

This kind of thing decreases the surplus population. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Most of the international students I came across back in the day weren’t exactly known for their common sense. Seems to still be the case.

Do you want to slow down. It's not even 7am on Saturday.

What kind of life do you lead?

He’s definitely straining and putting out relentless effort this AM. Countering the royal wedding. I like it.

Sounds like he wasn’t ready to take the plunge.

Sad story. Nature has a way of selecting the fittest among us to survive.

The real horror of this story, was that the jackass TJGator1215, wasn't the person who fell.

The man was with a group of five friends on Thursday afternoon when he veered off the designated viewing platform.

Was the cellphone rescued? A good snapshot of Darwinism in action would be great!
