CNN  — 

A French tourist has died after falling from a waterfall in Thailand while attempting to take a selfie.

The 33-year-old man died on Thursday after he slipped and fell from the Na Mueang 2 waterfall on the Thai island of Koh Samui – the same spot where a Spanish tourist died in a fall in July, the AFP news agency reported.

Rescuers from the Na Mueang Rescue Unit recovered the body of a French tourist from Na Mueang 2 waterfall on the island of Koh Samui.

“His friend said he was trying to take a selfie and then he slipped and fell,” Lieutenant Phuvadol Viriyavarangkul of the island’s tourist police told AFP.

Viriyavarangkul told the news agency that the spot is roped off and there is a sign warning tourists of the danger.

CNN has contacted the French Foreign Ministry for comment on the incident.

Some 259 people worldwide died while taking selfies from October 2011 to November 2017, according to a study published in India’s Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care.

A local police official told AFP that the spot from which the man fell is roped off from visitors.
