Two videos circulating on Weibo — China’s equivalent of WhatsApp — and Douyin, its version of TikTok, have gone viral, showing a man suffering a fatal fall from a high-rise after losing his balance while trying to adjust his footing on a window ledge.
The videos, originally from 2023, have resurfaced, accompanied by speculation about the circumstances surrounding the incident.
While some claim he fell while attempting the risky maneuver to scare his girlfriend, others suggest he was trying to hide from his lover’s husband.
