A Hong Kong Instagram star tragically plummeted to her death after she slipped while snapping a selfie at a waterfall.
The shocking incident occurred after Sofia Cheung, 32, and three friends embarked on a trip to Ha Pak Lai park around 11 a.m. Saturday, the Sun reported. The influencer had decided to take selfies at the edge of a waterfall at the park’s Pineapple Mountain site — a locale popular with hikers at sunset — when she apparently lost her footing and fell into the 16-foot pool below.
Cheung’s horrified friends promptly called emergency services, who quickly arrived and whisked the woman to the hospital, where she was pronounced dead on arrival, according to the Sun.

Based on some of the photographs in the article above, Ms. Cheung was not above taking risks for that perfect image.
It’s all about the page views and ad clicks.
“Life should be fun not dumb.”
At 32 she was old enough to know better.
Too bad, she was a beautiful woman. She could have been happily married with her children around her.
Sofia Cheung Ha Pak Lai Low for good.
Tragic.

According to the article:
Sofia Cheung, 32, plummeted 16 feet off a Hong Kong cliff on Saturday.
I don’t agree that falling 16 feet meets the definition of “plummeted” but it’s still enough of a distance to kill a person which is why OSHA requires fall protection whenever a person is working more than 6 feet off the ground.
She’ll learn that stunt only works for wrappers who are trying to get some street cred. Others shouldn’t try it, better to stay alive.
well she died what she loved doing
imo incredibly stupid, but it floated her boat
its not tragic
its stupidity
depends how you impact and what physical shape you’re in
She does not appear to be 32 in the picture.
its stupidity>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Hey, live by Instagram, die by Instagram.
Whom the gods destroy, they first make proud.( Sophacles)
A Greek Tragedy even.
A girl and her phone...
If she wanted to be a wrapper, she shoulda worked in Customer Services at Macy’s.
Do they still offer that service?
It wasn’t a selfie but “Cops” co creator
Paul Stojanovich died this way. Back up
a little more...
“Stojanovich died on March 15, 2003 after accidentally falling off a cliff on the Oregon coast while posing for a photograph his fiancé, Kim Crowell, was taking. He slipped on a wet tree root and fell 300 feet to the rocks and ocean below.”—Eikipedia
Apparently she wasn’t able to influence gravity.
Modern day equivalent of riding bicycle with no hands. Some people are born to teach. I would hope her unnecessary death influences others to be more circumspect about simple gravity effect avoidance techniques.
I agree! She doesn't look a day over 31 in that photo!
1. It might be an older photo from, say, 2018 (gosh!).
2. She's Asian, for chrissakes!
3. Photoshop.
