There are more than 9400 posts on Instagram with the hashtag #extremeselfie. In 2015 there have been eight deaths caused by sharks and 12 by selfies. People are being killed, or grievously injured, while posing for selfies with or near animals. The odds of being attacked by a shark in the US are 1 in 11.5 million. Authorities in multiple countries are taking action to protect people from harming themselves or others with selfie madness. Some are responding by banning selfie sticks (Disney World), or outlawing selfies with animals.”]
