Beautiful young lady - only 20 yrs old. Very sad.

A selfie should be called a lonely.

In a cruel twist of fate, Kelly had written, “Might as well be Peter Pan cause I’m never gonna grow up,” as her Instagram bio. She got that one right.

Yup, too bad she couldn’tjust accept that she was a pretty girl without some kind of constant outside validation. Sadder still, it’s a pandemic condition these days.

sorry to see this happen. I’m guessing the brain injury occurred earlier than people think

Tough crowd out here. Kids do stupid things. Feel sorry for her family. They will suffer forever over her loss.

“Selfies are fairly disgusting!!”
no kidding. That is exactly what I thought when I saw Obama taking selfies. The ones he did at Mandela’s funeral wer especially disgusting. And people think Trump isn’t very presidential?

Yeah, right. She didn't learn from the first few hundred people to die a selfie death.
I doubt her "few hundred" and one death is going help in succeeding to educate anybody else not to do stupid things in dangerous situations or environs.

Your nieces hold nothing on this guy...VAIN-VAINER-AND VAINEST Most disgusting selfie ever...

Pretty girl, at least she did people good by donating her organs, more so than her Instagram account.
I got to see Machu Picchu last year and was quite sure some of the social media fanatics were going to fall to their deaths.

Thanks. Sometimes being a mythology buff can be useful.
