This father can be seen saying goodbye to his son and daughter for the last time in this picture, shortly after the shot was taken he passed away from cancer.

In this picture we can see a Nepali man only inches from the ground, and death, after he decided to jump from a rooftop. Emergency services had tried to talk the man down from the ledge for hours but their attempts were unsuccessful in the end and the man decided to take his own life on the 13th of September 2013. We wonder whether this picture was taken at this exact moment by accident or on purpose.

Speaking of people with a sense of humor, this man takes the cake! Here he can be seen just hours before his death. He decided that he wanted to give his family one last silly picture to remember him by and he had his daughter take this picture while he was dying in the hospital.

There is nothing quite like human determination! This woman was determined to marry the love of her life and she decided that not even cancer would stand in the way of her walking down the aisle. A mere 18 hours after this photo was taken, the women succumbed to the disease but she died a happy woman, knowing that she had married the love of her life.

Moments after this photograph was taken, the life of one of the people in the picture was cut short. After the group photo was shot, the group decided to go for a hike when out of the blue a large rock fell on the head of the boy wearing the red shirt. It is thought that he was killed instantly as the rock severely damaged his skull.
