Taking selfies can be quite the dangerous activity.
A few years back, I wrote about a boy who fell 1,640 feet off of a cliff and survived. A year later, a man destroyed a 126 year-old statue while taking a selfie. The country Croatia told visitors to stop taking stupid and dangerous selfies. A woman fell 60 feet off of a bridge taking a selfie.
