A high school student died after falling from the third floor of a building during ``wall climbing,'' police said Thursday.
Police in Tongyeong, South Gyeongsang Province, said the student identified only as Park fell at 5:30 a.m. while climbing up the building without any safety equipment. He died at the scene, police said.
In questioning, Park's friends said he went up the building climbing on steel pipes and projecting stoneware after one of his friends offered him 10,000 won ($7.5) if he was susscessful. Park was to become a freshman at university in March.
