An Indian couple died after they fell 800 feet from a popular overlook at California's Yosemite National Park while taking a selfie

The San Francisco Chronicle reported that Vishnu Viswanath, 29, and Meenakshi Moorthy, 30, fell to their deaths from Taft Point in Yosemite National Park on the 25th of October. They were identified on Monday as a married couple from India living in the United States.
The report said that the husband and wife had recently moved from New York after Vishnu Viswanath took a job as a systems engineer at Cisco, based in San Jose. Together, they chronicled their adventures of travelling around the world in a blog called 'Holidays and HappilyEverAfters'.

Falling from Taft Point, where visitors take selfies and record the breathtaking view, the couple experienced an 800 feet fall. 
The couple's last picture was captured by another couple who was visiting the National Park and Meenakshi happened to photobomb their selfie. 


Vishnu and Meenakshi's painful death comes after they wrote on Instagram about the DOs and DONTs of clicking selfies for Instagram likes.
"Sooo today on #socialmediabadasstribe we are talking about limits of #doitforthegram. Yeah sure it can be limitless but guys, we reaaaallly need to have boundaries(this is handy as life lessons too but we will revisit that later)." 
"But did you know that wind gusts can be FATAL??? Is our life just worth one photo?" they wrote.  

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
CHASING SUNSETS or CHASING LIKES ??? ? ... Sooo today on #socialmediabadasstribe we are talking about limits of #doitforthegram.?Yeah sure it can be limitless but guys, we reaaaallly need to have boundaries(this is handy as life lessons too but we will revisit that later?) A lot of us including yours truly is a fan of daredevilry attempts of standing at the edge of cliffs ?and skyscrapers?, but did you know that wind gusts can be FATAL??? ?? Is our life just worth one photo? ... When we squirm at another selfie attempt gone south ? from a skyscraper, let’s remember to save that in our core memory ? and not the memory dump ?(I am still on the Inside Out ? train y'all ?) Same applies when we get our knickers in a twist and hog a spot till we get the perfect shot? I know I know, I am guilty as charged for all of this ?‍?? and if I didn’t have Mr. Two Goody Shoes, Vishnu ? with me, I am not even sure if I would have written this post. ... Let us all try to be responsible digital citizens and use our “numbers” to be transparent and honest, shall we?? None of us is perfect and the more we accept it and share our flaws as much as our wins, we are one step closer to creating a sane social media without the scary brouhahas.?? ... Still there?? Woohoo, a backflip is in order, or wait maybe a pizza? ? What about a unicorn ice-cream ? ? with some Disney-approved cotton candy ?? and pixie dust infused sprinkles ?‍?? if…..IF you could tell me the one time you were effin’ proud of being candid and real AF in social media? ? ...
