Selfies have reportedly caused more deaths than sharks this year.

According to statistics, selfie-taking is responsible for 12 fatalities with shark attacks only killing eight.

Even Russia has issued a warning about taking photos of yourself.

An aide for a Russian minister said in a statement: “Before taking a selfie, everyone should think about the fact that racing after a high number of ‘likes’ could lead him on a journey to death and his last extreme photo could turn out to be posthumous.”
