The Internet Is Saying That This Guy Predicted His Own Death With This Instagram Post

(Source) — In tragic news, a man fell off a cliff to his death Sunday while watching the sunrise with friends in Sydney, Australia. The man, a British daredevil named Gareth Jones, had taken a photo with his feet hanging over the edge of the very same cliff only three days prior to plummeting almost 300 feet to is death. The photo—captioned, “Another day another happy place. #manly #vans #fear.”—is the second to last post on Mr. Jones’s Instagram. His account includes a number of other similar photos, including several of him mid-air, as he was an extreme sports enthusiast who regularly went BASE jumping and sky diving.

What an idiotic theory. He predicted his own death because he Instagrammed himself sitting on a cliff and then he fell off a cliff a few days later? That’s just what happens to people who sit on cliffs, they fall off and die. It’s not a “prediction,” it’s just odds coming true. Like there are pictures of me chewing tobacco. If I get cancer tomorrow and die in a week you’re not going to say I predicted it, you’re going to say “Oh he dipped and he got cancer so he died.” That’s the logical outcome. Same goes for a dude sitting on the edge of a cliff with his feet hanging. They’re going to fall eventually, that’s science. When it happens he’s not Nostradamus, he’s an idiot. But a #manly one in #vans, at least.
