Some day, when you die, there will be a last photo of you floating out there somewhere. It’s crazy to think that some of those last photos were taken by the subject themselves, but that’s what happened to these people in a series of tragic events.
No matter where you stand on the issue of selfies, it’s clear these are all terrible events. Not all of these people put themselves at unnecessary risk for a cool picture, but a few did and that makes it even worse.
After these photos were taken, the most terrible thing happened…
1.) Reggaetón musician Jadiel.
Jadiel took this final picture of himself moments before a motorcycle accident claimed his life.
2.) Oscar Otero Aguilar.
After a drunken night with friends Oscar posed with a gun and tried to take a selfie. The gun accidentally went off, killing him.
3.) A Polish couple.
A Polish couple vacationing in Portugal fell to their deaths while taking selfies at the cliffs of Cabo Da Roca pictured above.
4.) Karen Hernández.
Karen was trying to take a selfie near the El Tunal river in Mexico. Instead she slipped and fell into the river, drowning.
5.) Two women in Iran.
These two women crashed their car while trying to shoot a video of them singing. Luckily they survived the crash, and even took another selfie en route to the hospital.
6.) A young man in Jaén, Spain.
