Moment tourist plunges off 40m cliff taking selfie
This is the terrifying moment a tourist plunged off a 40-metre high cliff after pausing to take a selfie while on a group hike.
The daredevil hiker can be seen balancing his way along the edge of the mountain grasping his phone in his hand.
He looks down at the rocks seemingly securing his footing before turning to take the snap.
Just seconds after, he stumbles and plummets down into the trees below.
His fellow hikers immediately turn around and make their way to the brink of the cliff to peer over.
As he went to take a photograph, the rock crumbled under his foot and the man was sent tumbling into the greenery below.
The tourist was climbing Huaying Mountain, in Guang’an, China, at the time of the incident.
Onlookers looked baffled at the scene of the horror fall and shrieked in shock before realising he was unharmed.
