Icon8 The bias in media news reporting is getting out of hand

Man plummets to his death after falling from branch on cliff while posing for picture



Quote:











A man has plummeted to his death after climbing a tree to pose for a picture before falling off of a cliff and into the ocean.
The incident occurred on Sept. 27 at approximately 1:48 p.m. when Oregon State Police Troopers received a call from the Devil’s Cauldron Trail in Oswald West State Park located in Tillamook County, Oregon, to reports that a man had fallen from a cliff into the Pacific Ocean.
According to authorities, Steven Gastelum, 43, of Seaside, Oregon, was walking with a friend down the Devil’s Cauldron trail before stopping to take a picture at a cliff side viewpoint.


Gastelum then reportedly climbed a tree on the cliff’s edge so that he could pose for a picture when the limb on the tree snapped causing him to plummet from the cliff approximately 100 feet into the ocean below.
“U.S. Coast Guard helicopter and Nehalem Bay Fire Department jet skis assisted in locating Gastelum and bringing him to shore,” said the Oregon State Police in a statement released to the media.


After authorities located the victim, Gastelum was then transported to Tillamook Regional Care Center by ambulance where he was pronounced dead.
Not one word on the damage to the tree or whether the tree is expected to recover.


Stupid media.
