A man in India is lucky to be alive after plummeting into a gorge during a selfie session gone horribly awry.
An Instagram post depicting his miraculous rescue is blowing up online.

Disaster struck after the adventurer reportedly tried to take a selfie and ended up plunging into a ravine, which goes down as far as 2,000 feet.

Harrowing footage shows the moment that the climber was extracted from the water with a long rope manned by over 10 people.
