Saftey Selfie

We recently wrote about multiple fatal selfie incidents and it seems that the problem has reached large enough proportions to warrant government action.

The Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs has launched a new campaign yesterday intended to keep its citizens out of harm’s way, and by that I mean getting themselves killed or injured while snapping a selfie.

Pointing out that health and life are worth more than a “million likes on social networks”, the ministry created a brochure that will be shared and handed out to citizens – especially students and young people.

Sadly, many of the warnings are based on actual incidents.
