MOSCOW – A 21-year-old Russian woman shot herself in the head on Thursday when she tried to take a selfie with a pellet gun pointed at her temple, Moscow police reported on Friday.
When trying to take the selfie in her office, she pulled the trigger of an air gun left behind by a security guard.
She survived the accident, but was hospitalized by the rubber bullet.
Incidentally, on Thursday, another Russian man nearly lost his life while trying to take a selfie when climbing an arched bridge in central Moscow.
The man fell, plunged to the ground and hit the asphalt, but also managed to survive despite having suffered several injuries, for which he was also hospitalized.
The self-portrait photo taken with a mobile phone or webcam known as a selfie has led to numerous accidents, some with tragic results.
On Monday, a ninth grader died in the Russian city of St. Petersburg after falling from a fifth-floor fire escape, which he had climbed to take a selfie.
