Travel blogging couple posted eerie Instagram warning before falling to their death
A YOUNG, globetrotting couple plunged to their deaths in California’s Yosemite National Park not long after posting a warning about engaging in risky behaviour when travelling.
Vishnu Viswanath, 29 and Meenakshi Moorthy, 30, died last week after falling from Taft Point — a popular overlook at the park that does not have a railing — and their bodies were recovered by park rangers on Thursday.
The pair, who were from India but lived in California, were travel enthusiasts and had a blog called “Holidays and HappilyEverAfters” that chronicled their adventures. The blog’s Instagram account had 15,000 followers at the time of writing.
Eerily, in a recent Instagram post, Moorthy shared a photo of her sitting on the edge of the Grand Canyon where reflected about the “daredevilry” of taking pictures from dangerous locations.
“A lot of us including yours truly is a fan of daredevilry attempts of standing at the edge of cliffs and skyscrapers, but did you know that wind gusts can be FATAL??? Is our life just worth one photo?” she wrote.
Viswanath’s brother told local media in India that he believes the couple were taking a selfie when the tragedy happened. However, authorities said park officials were investigating the deaths and the probe could take several days.
The couple fell almost 245 meters in an area surrounded by steep terrain and rescuers had to use a helicopter to recover the bodies.
Some 259 people have died worldwide in recent years while taking selfies, according to a study published earlier this month in the Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care.
Most of the deaths took place in India where 159 selfie deaths have been reported since 2011, the study said.
