Phones could help guard against selfie deaths, medics say

"Based on the GPS location or altitude of the tourist, we propose that there may be scope for providing verbal safety messages to individuals with their phone in camera mode, warning them that they are too close to a vertical drop. In such cases, the camera function may be disabled until the person moves away from the dangerous no selfie zone,"

You cannot guard against stupidity or freak accidents.

People will just meet their demise fumbling for the digital camera that will allow them to take the selfie.

How about a little bit of self responsibility..

Just don't use Apple Maps - notorious for being inaccurate!
