@Sjaak: hij was niet getrouwd, in VS wordt gezegd dat zij zijn 'girl friend' was.. dus er is hoop (dat er geen kinderen waren)
The problem seems to be worse in India than anywhere else: the country was home to half of those 27 deaths. [with selfies, world wide] To confront the apparently growing public health hazard, the Indian government decided to ban some selfies outright.
No-selfie zones have been established around some large religious gatherings (where organisers fear that selfie-induced bottlenecks could lead to a stampede), beaches, ledges and other treacherous spots where narcissism might turn deadly.
