Student dies after falling from Cliffs of Moher while avoiding puddle

A 20-year-old student died after falling from the Cliffs of Moher while trying to avoid a large puddle on a muddy trail. The inquest heard that the student, Roxan Bastaens, slipped on May 4, 2024, near Hag's Head. Her friends testified that the trail had no barriers in that section. This incident was one of two accidental deaths at the Cliffs of Moher in 2024, prompting the closure of parts of the trail due to safety concerns.
