I’m terrified of heights so you won’t ever find me on a cliff. That said, for the love of everything that is holy, if you find yourself on a cliff please don’t jump on it. Or at least be extremely careful because you don’t want to end up like the poor guy in this story.
Graphic footage below shows Halil Dağ jumping off a rock at Urfa Castle in southern Turkey in order to take a birthday photo while in midair. The only problem is Dağ slips, and rolls of the cliff. The 39-year-old father-of-eight tires to hold on but falls 150ft down, landing near a restaurant in the bottom.
The incident is below, but another heads up: It’s graphic.

Just brutal.
Dağ was rushed to the hospital in critical condition but unfortunately passed. I know a lot of people want to take photos at spectacular locations, but all I ask is that you’re careful and smart about things. Don’t want to become just another victim of a senseless death.
