Cái giá của "tự sướng"

số người chết vì chụp ảnh selfie còn nhiều hơn bị cá mập tấn công
-----
Selfies became all the rage (mốt thịnh hành) in the early part of the century, when smartphones with forward-facing cameras first hit the market. And their popularity has been explosive; last year, some 24 billion selfies were uploaded to Google Photos.
But this trend has been accompanied by a more tragic (bi kịch, thảm thương) one. In 2014, 15 people died while taking a selfie; in 2015 this rose to 39, and in 2016 there were 73 deaths in the first eight months of the year. That’s more selfie deaths than deaths due to shark attacks (cá mập tấn công, cá mập cắn).
...It turns out that most deaths occurred in India—76 of them, more than half of the total. The team also found that the most common cause of death was falling from a height. This reflects the penchant (sự thích thú, thiên hướng) for people taking selfies at the edge of cliffs (vách đá, nhô ra biển), at the top of tall structures, and so on. Water also accounts for a large number of deaths. And a significant number involve water and heights—things like jumping into the sea from a height and so on.
Interestingly, in India, trains feature significantly as a cause of selfie death. “This trend caters to the belief that posing on or next to train tracks (đường ray tàu hỏa) with their best friend (bạn thân) is regarded as romantic (lãng mạn) and a sign of never-ending friendship (tình bạn vững bền),” they say.
