A man who fell 300ft (91m) to his death from the top of a cliff was posing for a photo at the time, holding on to a tuft of grass, coastguards said.
The "tragic accident" at Seaton in Devon on Sunday afternoon was witnessed by the 39-year-old Polish man's friends and nearby tourists.
The victim was found in bushes at the foot of Beer Hill and rescuers said he would have been killed instantly.

Still, I wonder what was the last thing to go through his mind before he hit the rocks below? "Święty shit, JA ma stają się język polski żart" (Translation: "Holy shit, I has polish of joke become")

Looks like he found out the hard way that beer on the rocks doesn't taste too good.

Can we see the photo?

Still, I wonder what was the last thing to go through his mind before he hit the rocks below? The last thing to go through his mind was his ass.
