A woman plunged 115-foot from a cliff to her death while posing for a picture to celebrate the end of the coronavirus (COVID-19) lockdown in Turkey.
Olesya Suspitsyna, from Kazakhstan, fell in front of her female friend who was about to take photographs in the tourist city of Antalya in the south-west the country.

Reports say the 31-year-old went for a walk to an area known for its scenic waterfalls.
During the walk, Olesya decided to take a daring photo on the edge of a cliff with the waterfalls in the background.
