Brit falls off cliff watching sunrise
A British tourist has died after falling from a cliff in Australia while watching the sunrise.
The 25-year-old man, who is believed to have been an experienced base jumper, reportedly climbed a fence at the Fairfax Walk lookout where he had gone to watch the sunrise with friends.
He fell 90 metres off the edge of a cliff on to a rock platform in Manly, Sydney.
Inspector Nigel Taylor said the group had climbed over the fence and walked along the escarpment before sitting beside the cliff to watch the sunrise.
"When they returned to the lookout, the young fella has gone to have a closer look and fallen over the edge," he told the Sydney Morning Herald."
The Foreign Office said: "We can confirm the death of a British national in New South Wales on 7 December."
