Polenko’s last words were…

сыыррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррррр……

Okay, okay, sorry.

A tourist fell more than 170 feet to her death when she stumbled while taking a selfie from a clifftop viewing platform, the latest in a string of such incidents.

39-year-old Inessa Polenko plunged from the panoramic Gagry viewing point in Abkhazia, a breakaway region of Georgia as she tried to take a photo of herself.

Polenko, who was a beautician and a keen Instagram user, climbed over a barrier to reach the clifftop viewing point which overlooks the Black Sea. However, as she climbed over the barrier to take a selfie, Polenko stumbled and fell onto a beach below, according to eyewitnesses.

Not to be callous (I guess it’s too late for that) but isn’t this and the above-linked tragic incidents the very definition of “culling the herd”?

    They replace the signs and make the barrier higher every other year. Surprised it’s not an 8 foot barbed wire fence by now.

      Idiots would just die getting shredded by the barb wire and the janitors would have to pull their chunks out.
