17-Year-Old Boy Meets Death While Trying To Pose For A Selfie On A 9-Storey Building | Photos

Andrey Retrovsky, a 17-year-old boy from Russia, was known for his striking Instagram account. He posted many daring pics of himself climbing on buildings and girders. Unfortunately, his love for dangerous photography spots led to his untimely end.

The schoolboy met his death while trying to take an ‘extreme selfie’ on a ninth-floor rooftop with his friend. Armed with rope and his phone, he approached the edge of the rooftop and lowered himself over it. But seconds later, the rope gave way and he plummeted nine floors.
