Tourist Dies Taking Selfie at Taj Mahal

A Japanese tourist died while visiting the Taj Mahal Friday, and one eyewitness tells the BBC the man was taking a selfie at the time. He reportedly fell down the stairs at the monument, lost consciousness, and died of head injuries at a nearby hospital; one of the three other visitors he was with also fell from the staircase and fractured his leg, NDTV reports. However, the Japan Times reports the 66-year-old collapsed after climbing the stairs and died of a heart attack. An investigation is underway. (More Taj Mahal stories.)
