Two small children have been orphaned while on vacation in Cabo da Roca, Portugal, after witnessing their parents’ accidental deaths. The family from Poland was visiting scenic Cabo da Roca on Saturday night.

The parents crossed a barrier to take a selfie together near the 140-meter-high edge.

But while their children looked on, they took one step too far back and went over the cliff.

A Spanish couple witnessed the accident and called emergency services. Bad weather prevented rescuers from recovering the couple’s bodies on Saturday. The couple’s bodies were eventually recovered on Sunday. Their children, aged 5 and 6, are in the care of Polish diplomats and receiving counseling.
