quote [ The fact remains that, right or wrong, our culture encourages extreme selfies. Acquiring a large social media following can be downright lucrative. Meanwhile, companies like Red Bull seem to promote risky selfies, making it that much more appealing to folks looking for sponsorship or more followers. ]
Got a little carried away on searching for song puns on this…

The first one is a terrible example to lead off with. This was a regular mountaineering death by an experienced climber who happened to have a gimmicky summit ritual. The article makes no claim that she was taking the selfie when she fell, or that she only climbed to get the pics. She wasn't wearing the bikini when she died.

I consider it a form of Darwinism. People stupid enough to accidentally kill themselves while taking a selfie should be removed from the gene pool.

"...right or wrong, our culture encourages extreme selfies"
I'd say: right. Otherwise, why bother? |
