The “jump shot” has somewhat become a customary photo choice among tourists but when done wrong, it can turn fatal.

Such was the case for South Korean student Hyewon Kim, who plunged 200 feet to her death after posing at the edge of a cliff in Cuckmere Haven in East Sussex, England.

According to The Independent, the 23-year-old traveler requested a stranger to take the photo.

Witnesses claimed that the delighted woman was jumping up and down in excitement during the shoot.

Kim reportedly ignored her distance to the cliff, jumped in the air for the shot and accidentally lost her footing near the edge.

Her fall caused a sickening thud to reverberate in the area, the report said.

“There were six photos of her close to the cliffs. They were showing her jumping in the air extremely close to the edge,” one of the responders in the scene, Detective Sergeant Tod Stewart, was quoted as saying in the report.

“Her concentration is not on anything other than what she is doing. The expression on her face shows nothing but enjoyment.”

The coroner’s report indicated that Kim suffered catastrophic injuries, including fatal head trauma.

The Korean national was in Britain to improve her English, but decided to visit the popular tourist attraction by herself.

You know, I always wonder if articles like these are fake. I'm not saying it's fake, but we don't really get any proof other than "it happened.. believe me."

It's all a conspiracy, government forged this article to promote it's own agenda and push it on unsuspecting tourists "Being too cocky without noticing any danger around you can be fatal."

We know what's really going on government.

Such a tragic accident, I believe those "tourist attractions" have to be made a bit safer. There was literally nothing between her and the 60-meter fall that could prevent her from jumping off? Also why didn't the witnesses or the camera guy warn her or something.

"Witnesses claimed that the delighted woman was jumping up and down in excitement during the shoot."

I mean what the fuck.

yes we should ban all cliffs and make the world 100% flat and covered in safety bubble wrap

Ban them? No. I have a better Idea. We should go to war with them. They attacked us first, killing one of our own. We can do better, we have guns and they don't. Lets put cliffs back on the endangered list. No more cliffs.

Common sense is what should be between people and a 60-meter tall cliff...Still sad that these things happen, but I don't think any more protection should be needed to shield people from stupidity.

What if the victim was a 3-year-old kid? Is common sense still an excuse?

A 3-year old shouldn't be walking off without their parents. It's the parents' responsibility to take care of their child. It's the same way parents don't allow their 3-year old kids get close to traffic or any other potentially dangerous locations.

That's too bad. People should be careful at places like that. The ground can be slippery
