Another cliff tragedy

From the BBC:

A nine-year-old girl died from serious head injuries when rocks fell from a cliff at a beach in North Yorkshire...

Onlookers described the fall, which they said was near warning signs about the cliff, as "particularly serious".


If it's not cows trampling ramblers or cars hitting houses, it's cliffs collapsing and injuring or killing people. I don't go anywhere near cliffs nowadays.

Cars, cows... and now cliffs.

From the BBC:

A teenager was hurt when part of a cliff crumbled on top of her at a beach.

The girl had been standing at the base of the cliff on Happisburgh beach, Norfolk, when she was hit at about 16:30 BST on Friday.

She was airlifted to the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital with suspected head and back injuries, the coastguard said.
