Horrifying footage shows the moment a TikToker plunged to her death from a rooftop after clambering up to get videos of the sunset.

Kubra Dogan, 23, was visiting her cousin 16-year-old cousin Helen at her family’s apartment in Istanbul, Turkey, when the pair decided to film content for TikTok on the roof.

The pair spent some time taking clips and pictures while on the roof when around 7.30pm, Kurba fell.

Shocking footage of the incident, filmed by her cousin, shows her posing for the camera before sitting on the edge of the roof.

Kubra then steps down onto a lower part of the building, and a loud crunching sound can be heard as she disappears through the plastic panel, plummeting about 50 metres.

Her stunned cousin quickly rushed to tell her family of the incident and emergency services dashed to the scene in Esenyurt on Friday.

Tragically, paramedics confirmed Kubra had died.

According to the news site Sabah, her heartbroken family is planning to sue the roofing contractor who installed the sheets on the roof.

Her uncle Nebi Dogan told the outlet: “There is a big flaw in the contractor there.

“As soon as the girl puts her foot, it breaks and (she) falls to the ground from the 9th floor.”

Meanwhile, Kubra’s body is due to be handed over to her family for burial following an autopsy.

The investigation is ongoing.
