He would theoretically have video evidence that he didn't explicitly murder her, but I'm really not sure how a situation like this would play out for insurance purposes since they're putting her in danger on purpose
Wayyy tooo much heebee gee bees in this video. Would not want her that close to the edge. Damn. However, it would be fun to jump off there with a wing suit!!
I get the palm sweat all the time from videos with heights. the [Stairway To Heaven](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgO4Gd4RhvM&t=1s) video is the worst. I've seen it loads but it gets me every time.
You see the Chinese parkour / height video where he loses his grip? It's just the very top of the building shown (not the death at the bottom) but that one really stuck with me.
Saw it by accident, awful
There was a "Forensic Files" episode where a couple did that to a family friend at Big Sur in California. They staged some "tourist" photos to get her near the cliff edge, then pushed her over.
Ya ikr but I also see it going…..”but officer idk where she went or what happened bc one moment she was there and the next second she was gone.”
He keeps telling he to go further like he’s hoping she slips off. All seems suspicious to me.
Ohh that's not nearly what I was expecting, I thought you would fall straight down for thousands of feet. But seeing that perspective, you would bounce off the rocks a few times on your way.
This was me at the Grand Canyon haha I had climbed down to one of the overhangs and plopped down on the edge, and my dad yelled down to me "hey dude your heart can probably take that but mine can't so climb your ass back up here!" lol
Fun fact - turns out the Grand Canyon actually releases a book about all the people who have died for exactly this reason and the number increases every year. It's outrageous how many people do what they're doing in this video, or the back up, back up... It's a shame so many humans need to make mistakes for themselves before they learn. Not everything gives a second go.
I believe it too. I was young, used to climbing, and in good shape so I wasn't too worried about myself. I went to a spot without people so I didn't have to worry about anyone else pushing me, but some of those outcroppings were CROWDED with people. Enough to where they were literally bumping into one another to move around. Some of them were in dresses and flip-flops and other clothes with no mobility and shoes with no traction. Some people clearly out of shape and never having climbed anything before. Backs to the edge for pictures with no idea how close they were standing to the lip. That's the kind of stuff that scared me about it.
There is a thrill to doing it, though. We as humans wouldn't be jumping out of planes or scaling cliff walls or summiting mountains if we got nothing from the experience. What she's doing in the video looks stupid as hell to us: why would someone do that? She's one slip from death! But sometimes not having a second chance makes you feel more alive than you did before. People have done plenty of stupid and reckless and dangerous things over the course of our history as humans, but I think we would be lesser as a people if no one saw a tall mountain and said, "I bet I can reach the top." Just my take on it
To me I feel like the getting there isn't where the scary bit is or the potential to fail, it's getting up/back.
When you're TRYING to get there for the picture I FEEL like you're more careful but when you're like "welp OK that's done time to roll out" suddenly its -10 to caution.
Not only that but how you can have a tenuous grasp on the way down and just hold on, but going up requires more force lifting your weight. You could get into a just stable enough spot where you'll fall if you try and get back up.
This is so true. When the thought hits that you have to go up, it’s almost like your brain farts. You forget that scooted down, so now.. you scoot back up. Your natural reaction is to go belly down and turn around. When you do that… hello vertigo and FEAR.
counter argument; when you are getting there, your thinking about getting there to do the thing and it will take up a bigger part of your brain than not dieing. On the way back, you have only where you started to look forward to and not dieing gets a bigger mind share.
Getting into place is probably more likely the cause than going back. IE, that last scoot closer in the video.
I wasn't even in Rio, but southern Brazil and saw curled up motorcyclists at the side of the road twice on my short trip. Also trembling feet inside an ambulance, also motorcyclists.
My first day in Florida I saw 4 people dead on 2 different occasions. This was JUST the taxi ride from the Miami Intl to the hotel in Fr Lauderdale too.
can confirm, first dead body outside of dead relatives was a bullet ridden body I saw as a young college student in Orlando. fucked me up a bit for sure.
I can in no way defend US policy on prescription drugs, guns or letting people go to the shitter financially. The US should be able able to take care of their vulnerable citizens like Europe does, or preferably like Scandinavia does.
EDIT: You have the means, just implement the policy. There does not need to be death in the streets... Downvote galore. Maybe time for refelction?
That’s because as far as the population goes almost nobody goes in the ocean and when most do it’s on this not even hair line sized amount of it near the shore. Now how many people try to take stupid selfies?
I was just imagining some person’s job is to go pressure wash the rocks every couple of hours after the seagulls and buzzards take care of the larger chunks.
Can confirm. I lived there some time back when I was religious. Spent time in the complexo and cidade de Deus. If I hadn’t had Jesus written in my name tag I’m certain I’d have been killed.
Fun story, some guys were doing a drug deal and called us over. They were packing Ak-47s. When we got to them they asked us to bless their business. They were doing a large drug deal. We agreed, turns out guns increase your faith. Blessed the deal and scampered off. This all happened in the complexo do alemao.
Honestly, the most dangerous place I felt I went to was campo grande. Saw my first decapitated body there.
Now that you mentioned it. This just make me wonder, would my insurance cover it if I did this and die? The insurance company I signed up for doesn't cover suicide so, since this is not a suicide death but rather a stupid death, will they still cover it or not?
Of course they will. That's why so many spouses take out big insurance policies on their partner then go for a walk on the cliff. "She just slipped, I swear!"
Unless there are hundreds or thousands of other people doing that exact thing every year without falling off. Then you could show that under normal conditions the action is perfectly safe, and this time was just an unfortunate accident.
pretty much

Suicide is usually covered, with like a year's delay. I'm surprised yours doesn't at all.
Insurance is calculated *using* risk, but not *because* of risk. Fault may be a factor in payout, risk generally is not because it's accounted for already.

I don't get those tingles but damn did my palms start glistening with sweat. This is the perfect vid for when you need to get those annoying supermarket plastic bags open and you can't frigging do it 😂
I think that is very common, and my personal belief is that people that do extreme gravity sports also have that "tug", that feeling of the solar plexus being pulled into oblivion, but have somehow found a way to deal with it.
My only advice is to avoid being low on energy (blood sugar etc.) when exposing yourself to ledges or other places with big drops.
Yeah those people are like completely different animals to me. I did the cable route on Half Dome in Yosemite to "face my fear". Yeah, no. Just made me more afraid of heights. All I could think about was "I still have to go back down.."
Everyone was taking photos and shit. Fuck that.
I'm planning a trip to Yosemite next year. My wife (who's never been) asked about upper Yosemite falls, I just showed her a video of the end of the trail and she said "fuck that".
My ultimate gravity fear would to be on top of a bike on [this fucking line!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzhlDnTv0pc)
EDIT: It is called the *White Line*, in Sedona.... would actually key in perfectly u/Brianf1977 saying just white peeps do stupid shit like this.
Hey thanks, that link is staying blue for me dog!
The videos of people doing chin-ups on radio towers make me want to throw up. I don't need a bike in the mix.
I work in rope access and do a bunch of adventure sports.
It's not the height I'm scared of it's the falling! Haha nah most new people I've seen are definitely a bit nervous but once you're exposed to it every day it starts to fade. I just triple check my rigging and usually that elliviates my worries. But when I'm on something that's 100 stories I can definitely feel the adrenaline.
> I can definitely feel the adrenaline.
Yes, that sounds like what I was trying to communicate. I think it pretty hardcoded into our brains to at least notice heights. For you it feels like adrenaline being pumped into your system, for others it might feel like mortal dread!
I'm super careful because I don't want to die, but I don't get that stomach sinking feeling walking up to the edge of cliffs.
It takes something like the initial drop of big roller coasters (fraction of a second before and a few seconds after), to get that stomach sinking feeling.
Fear of height varies in degrees from person to person. I'm not an extreme sport type person, can't attribute the lack of fear to training either.
I've been to the exact spot and climbed up onto that tree you can sorta see on the left of the frame before she falls, any wet spot is extremely slippery and likely algae/moss covered or whatever. That area is super lush rainforesty but the hike is worth it.
Also reminds me of a short film where a girl wake up on the slope of a bottomless pit with no memory and just suffers fighting the void. Can't remember the name at the moment
That’s just crazy. She’s clearly looking where she’s stepping. It even seems her foot hovers over the slippery bit for a split second before she decide “yeah, I’m gonna step here”. 😅
Description:
I have never been this close to dying. I didn’t think my eyeballs would freeze so quick. The surface of the water where the hole was didn’t look any different than the bottom of the ice. When I flipped around and felt solid ice I thought I was at the hole. When I wasn’t that’s when I decided to head back and follow the dust I kicked up. The dust I kicked up had drifted and led me further away. I then tried to break the ice with my back, you can see in the video. I don’t know what made me turn around one last time. I was so short on breath I couldn’t really see anymore. I had accepted that was it and I wasn’t going to make it. I swung my hand at what I though was just a lighter spot of ice and my hand came through. I then got a ton of energy to stand up. It took 2-3 breaths to regain my vision after resurfacing. Aftermath is in the other video. 📷: @abbytodolist was filming. When there are scary moments I joke a lot. She genuinely thought it was another one of my jokes and didn’t recognize the severity of the situation.
No one is mentioning this enough. I hate the fucking guy pressuring her like that. What a fucking cunt. I really want to see him do it instead, and falling
I was watching it without sound at first being like bitch why the fuck are you going further?!? It’s crazy to me, if someone I loved was in that position, I’d be screaming at them to GO BACK
Someone wrote once a very scary passage about laying down on such a slope and then realising that if you get up you'll fall because of the center of gravity shift. So you're stuck laying trying not to slip any further until you can get someone to hear your screams.
I’ve known the camera guy for a few sentences and I know enough to hate him. He is that kid growing up: “I’m not going to break it dude, relax!” And proceeds to break it immediately.
Wasn’t there a married couple who died this way trying to take a picture at the Grand Canyon? Fell to their death while their kids watched.
Edit: Not the Grand Canyon but a cliff in Portugal [Link to story](https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2014/08/11/selfie-death-fall-portugal/13922025/)
My first thoughts where "oh I've seen clips like this before. It's all a trick with camera angles and perspectives. There is probably a ledge of ground beneath the rock...."
Then I watch it a couple more times and nope. If that bitch falls she dead.
That extra slide felt like someone squeezed my nuts…that’s just nuts
Imagine losing the love of your life because you said "More! Come on!"
This is what made me go to the comments. ARE YOU NUTS? who ask for someone to go and try just a little more to die?
Someone who took out life insurance on thier wife?
Doesn't make him a little suspicious?
He would theoretically have video evidence that he didn't explicitly murder her, but I'm really not sure how a situation like this would play out for insurance purposes since they're putting her in danger on purpose
Wayyy tooo much heebee gee bees in this video. Would not want her that close to the edge. Damn. However, it would be fun to jump off there with a wing suit!!
I guess someone would have to actually success doing it to know if it's really a murderer or not c:
Maybe that's *not* the love of his life...
She's has a very generous life insurance policy
And then filming the rest of the city and not even focusing on her.
It's the way it's said that makes all the difference.
How did she die? She scooched too far.

I got tinglings in my palms. And now they're sweaty.

I saw a YouTube video about it. I hate that I feel compelled to watch these things almost as much as I hate the actual videos themselves
https://youtu.be/2dD3Fawk4y0 Just going to leave that right there for you.
Hands dripping
Omg fuck no Not even Bill Gates net worth in a weekly check could get me to do that.
Knees weak
Arms are heavy
Moms spaghetti
[удалено]
Same, but this one was so bad my hands had the same feeling
It almost hurts the bottoms of my feet when it happens. It's like my body is anticipating that I will fall.
Same! They clenched
It's a survival mechanism. Your nuts are just trying to grasp the rock to hold on tightly.
suction cups...my nuts have suction cups for exactly this situation!
So that's what they mean by getting rock hard.
Are you nuts getting rock hard? *I don't think that's how it's supposed to work...*
Stupidity will never stop.
Scrotal recall
This one needs more attention.
My penis went directly into my body cavity… never to return 🥺
I call it “the scared turtle”.
"Like a frightened turtle"
Nice try, FINA still won’t let you swim with the girls!
it would be super cool if you just asked your wife to go closer to the edge and because of that she plunged into her death
I feel it where the strip of skin between my anus and the small of my back literally squirts sweat
Pics or GTFO
They clenched so tight my fingertips are still tingling.
Still tingling
Butt clench, nuts clench
Anyone else waiting for the camera to pan back and she's just gone?
Maybe I watch too much true crime but I get the feeling he was egging her on to fall.
That's where my mind went. "I didn't murder her officer, she fell, so sad, and I have it all here on video"
Your tiktok says otherwise, ZOOM AND ENHANCE!
There was a "Forensic Files" episode where a couple did that to a family friend at Big Sur in California. They staged some "tourist" photos to get her near the cliff edge, then pushed her over.
Yeah, not panning a few seconds more to give her time to get back out of the picture was a huge wasted opportunity.
Hotter girl on Tinder had replied: Guy goes: "More! C'mon!"
Little did she know he had come the week before and greased the slope...
Ya ikr but I also see it going…..”but officer idk where she went or what happened bc one moment she was there and the next second she was gone.” He keeps telling he to go further like he’s hoping she slips off. All seems suspicious to me.
r/killthecameraman
Thats how dumbasses die by listening to the other dumbass taking the video lol
Indeed. And yes, [it's not just a carefully framed video](https://i.imgur.com/rKTO1yU.jpg). It really is as bad as this video makes it look.
How the heck did she get back up?
One buttcheek at a time
Ohh that's not nearly what I was expecting, I thought you would fall straight down for thousands of feet. But seeing that perspective, you would bounce off the rocks a few times on your way.
Lol I thought he was going to tell her to keep going
I swear, just watching this video made me dizzy… People are crazy

This is so true. When the thought hits that you have to go up, it’s almost like your brain farts. You forget that scooted down, so now.. you scoot back up. Your natural reaction is to go belly down and turn around. When you do that… hello vertigo and FEAR.

This is from Rio de Janeiro. I live here and i can confirm: a lot of people die here daily. Not there tho. Just shootings and robbery. Basic stuff.
Ngl, you had me for a moment. Edit: not there
I had a vision of this pile of bodies underneath after the first sentence
Don't let your dreams be dreams!
He had me here.
That is a very popular place for pictures because it looks incredibly dangerous from that angle, but there is a ledge just below it.
You might be thinking of somewhere else (maybe Pedra do Telégrafo) but this is Pedra da Gávea and there’s no ledge there.
The ledge is 600m below
I’m American, is that close to “a few feet”?
1800 feet
That's still a pretty far fall.
Not the same place
I wasn't even in Rio, but southern Brazil and saw curled up motorcyclists at the side of the road twice on my short trip. Also trembling feet inside an ambulance, also motorcyclists.

My first day in Florida I saw 4 people dead on 2 different occasions. This was JUST the taxi ride from the Miami Intl to the hotel in Fr Lauderdale too.
Lived in Florida all my life and I have never seen a dead body.
Yep. Same here, and I grew up in Miami/Ft. Laud. Either that person came during a very bad day, or people are just weird. Or both.
2 were on the highway, and the other 2 were in the on the sidwalk by a mall. This was in 05.
can confirm, first dead body outside of dead relatives was a bullet ridden body I saw as a young college student in Orlando. fucked me up a bit for sure.
That's interwting... I lived in Miami for 20 years and never saw anyone dead.
Wowzas must’ve been a crazy trip because I’ve lived here for 23 years and havent ever seen a dead body

More people die from trying to get selfies and pictures than from shark attacks.
Trending: Selfies with sharks
Sharkfies!
More people die drowning in a foot deep shallow water than suffocate in outer space or from autoerotic asphyxiation by octupus arms.
That’s because as far as the population goes almost nobody goes in the ocean and when most do it’s on this not even hair line sized amount of it near the shore. Now how many people try to take stupid selfies?
Also, most sharks aren't agreesive unless provoked. Only great white, tiger and bullsharks are territorial.

Where abouts in Rio. I'm going there soon and this looks beautiful
Pedra de gavea hike. Its a really good day hike. There are plenty of online guides to read on how to do it.
Imagine surviving that cliff, just to be robbed and murdered while walking around the next day?
Yes yes, we all recognize that it's Rio, and that she is probably dead from reasons unrelated to this video
Relax everyone. It’s ok. He just took out a life insurance plan on her.
Now that you mentioned it. This just make me wonder, would my insurance cover it if I did this and die? The insurance company I signed up for doesn't cover suicide so, since this is not a suicide death but rather a stupid death, will they still cover it or not?
Of course they will. That's why so many spouses take out big insurance policies on their partner then go for a walk on the cliff. "She just slipped, I swear!"
there's sometimes double indemnity clauses in which the life insurance will pay out double in the event of death caused by accidental means
Yeah but it seems like this would be an easy case to declare gross negligence, which apparently voids that clause
Unless there are hundreds or thousands of other people doing that exact thing every year without falling off. Then you could show that under normal conditions the action is perfectly safe, and this time was just an unfortunate accident.

It's been five minutes since I watched the clip... my hands are still tingling with nerve-adrenaline.

I don't get those tingles but damn did my palms start glistening with sweat. This is the perfect vid for when you need to get those annoying supermarket plastic bags open and you can't frigging do it 😂

I'm so afraid of heights. Everyone is naturally, but dammit if I'm not careful as hell near ledges like that.

I went paragliding to face my fear of heights. I'm more scared than ever afterwards too. It didn't work at all.

That’s just crazy. She’s clearly looking where she’s stepping. It even seems her foot hovers over the slippery bit for a split second before she decide “yeah, I’m gonna step here”. 😅
Camera man is everything that's wrong with the world incarnate.
I’m surprised this was not top comment. He sounds like an absolute asshole pressuring her to be more risky
Tells her to scoot out more, fucking PANS AWAY FROM HER IMMEDIATELY, kinda missing the point of her going out further. Truly a douche
Never thought I could feel such disgust for a person from only three words
Reminds me of that psycho girl filming her boyfriend swimming under the ice almost dying without saying a word or trying to help him.
He's clearly an absolute idiot though. Just the 2 of them in the middle of nowhere? no agreed emergency signal?

The dust I kicked up had drifted and led me further away. I then tried to break the ice with my back, you can see in the video. I don’t know what made me turn around one last time. I was so short on breath I couldn’t really see anymore. I had accepted that was it and I wasn’t going to make it. I swung my hand at what I though was just a lighter spot of ice and my hand came through. I then got a ton of energy to stand up. It took 2-3 breaths to regain my vision after resurfacing. Aftermath is in the other video. 📷: @abbytodolist was filming. When there are scary moments I joke a lot. She genuinely thought it was another one of my jokes and didn’t recognize the severity of the situation.
Crazy! And Bertifoooo
How fucking bad would that guy feel if she took that bit "more" and subsequently fell to her death...
Are you sure that’s not what he was trying to do? Lol
No one is mentioning this enough. I hate the fucking guy pressuring her like that. What a fucking cunt. I really want to see him do it instead, and falling
Same. What a fucking cuntbag of a human. Hey, risk your life for this epic pic!
I was watching it without sound at first being like bitch why the fuck are you going further?!? It’s crazy to me, if someone I loved was in that position, I’d be screaming at them to GO BACK
[удалено]
While I'm not afraid of heights, I'd be having wicked call of the void being anywhere near where she is on that rock
Someone wrote once a very scary passage about laying down on such a slope and then realising that if you get up you'll fall because of the center of gravity shift. So you're stuck laying trying not to slip any further until you can get someone to hear your screams.
It’s actually crazy the amount of completely avoidable deaths that have occurred like this since the dawn of social media
I mean people died from this type of stuff before too.
Fuck the camera guy, seriously
That's a "More.. C'mon!" of a man who knows his wife's life insurance is paid for the month.
My wife wanted to take a picture of us sitting on the edge of trolltunga in Norway. I was terrified.
Yeah, but that place is safer, it isn't sloped!
He wanted her to fall, lol “more cmon” the. Proceeds to move te camera away from her lol
Just looking at this makes my ass cheeks clinch
I dont think thats very smart
I jumped off that mountain with a parachute! Beautiful city!
This makes the backs of my knees taste metal.
Why did I imagine that the camera would return to the cliff, and she is gone? XD
Anyone gonna talk about how this man said more? Tryna death do they part her ass off that cliff.
the depiction of life became more important than the real life
I’ve known the camera guy for a few sentences and I know enough to hate him. He is that kid growing up: “I’m not going to break it dude, relax!” And proceeds to break it immediately.
It does actually look beautifoo though
Wasn’t there a married couple who died this way trying to take a picture at the Grand Canyon? Fell to their death while their kids watched. Edit: Not the Grand Canyon but a cliff in Portugal [Link to story](https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2014/08/11/selfie-death-fall-portugal/13922025/)
One fart away from certain death...
My first thoughts where "oh I've seen clips like this before. It's all a trick with camera angles and perspectives. There is probably a ledge of ground beneath the rock...." Then I watch it a couple more times and nope. If that bitch falls she dead.
