Video of A SchoolboyThat Fail From 9th Floor Rooftop to His Death
The 17-year-old student apparently climbed to the top of a building in Vologda, Russia, with a companion with the intention of creating a photo of himself dangling off the towering structure.
Armed with rope and his phone, he approached the edge of the rooftop in the fading light and lowered himself over it. But seconds later, the rope gave way and he plummeted nine floors, according to local media reports.
