Baahubali craze turns fatal as youngster dies replicating scene

SS Rajamouli's magnum opus Baahubali might have smashed records at the box-office but the craze has led to a tragic end.

Baahubali's acrobatic stunt where Prabhas jumps off a cliff to meet Tamannah in the backdrop of a mighty water fall seemed to have impressed many but a 23-year-old lost his life replicating the scene.

In a gimmick to show his cliff-hanger skills to his friends, the youngster identified as Shabbir from Karimnagar had visited Gattu Singaram waterfalls in Peddapalli where he slipped and died after having a fatal fall.
