    If natural selection was allowed to take back over - most humans would be wiped out almost immediately. I've watched people walk right out in front of moving cars while texting. But....they HAVE to be connected 24/7 right?

      You know this is a serious matter how much a mobile phone can take your attention away from something. I have seen videos of people walking into trains and more. I even almost got nailed by texting. SO be careful!

      When I was 10. I remember walking into a wooden electric pole at recess. I was too focused on a girl I loved. She was my Girlfriend.

      I was passed out on the ground for about 15 minutes. It knocked me out.

    If she had the iCliffAlert app, this never would have happened.

    It's pretty cool... if you're texting and you get within 5 feet of a cliff, Siri will alert you by saying "Watch out you dumb $@!# ... you're about to fall off a cliff!"

    From the article: "... she was attempting to write a text on her cell phone when she walked near a cliff to flick a cigarette butt off the edge...".

    See... smoking really is bad for you!

    Just saw this in the comments on the article:

    "I wonder if she added a bunch of exclamation points to her text while falling?"

    Similar messages when I looked:

    "Man drives off bridge just after texting I need to quit texting
    11 percent of all sexts end up sent to the wrong recipient
    Texting while walking claims another victim, woman falls off pier"

    Imagine dying because a text was misdirected! and YEAH, darwin is running BACKWARDS now! I wonder how long it will be before gorillas or chimps take over.

      She was texting while walking to the edge of the cliff to toss her cigarette butt over the cliff.

      So - a smoker with no concern for the environment walks off a cliff to prove she's an airhead? That sounds about right.
