“Selfie Deaths” Number Is Up
What a weird name… but it’s a thing… selfie deaths.
Researchers say there have now been over 250 over the past 6 years, according to The Hill.
What country does this happen in the most? You’d be surprised. It’s not the US where we seem to see people taking selfies everywhere. They say it’s in INDIA! They’re followed by Russia and then, us… well the U.S.
The biggest problems seem to be when people try to snap a selfie in the water or near a train. Ugh what a way to go. I also have to wonder how many deaths happen every year just from people not paying attention while they walk. We already know people are way too distracted by their phones while they drive.
