Never back up while looking into a camera. It’s something you don’t even think about, but backing up without seeing what’s behind you is so dangerous. This is not the first story I’ve heard of someone dying. A friend’s dad saw a man back himself off a sea-side cliff while trying to take a picture of his family. Even hearing the story third-hand that image is seared into my memory.
