This is really sad--  I feel for the victim and their family.
 Bastendorff Beach and the cliffs over it are wonderful places to enjoy nature, including magnificent views of boats and ships crossing the bar.  The cliffs are tempting but dangerous, and many an unaware visitor has fallen to their death or serious injury.
What to do, fence  them all off? 
Reminds me of the  RG story  today of the restoration of a railroad bridge near Marcola  which could be held  up because of the danger someone might jump off and kill themselves and their survivors will sue....
How do we protect ourselves-- and themselves-- from witless people who have no common sense when around danger?
