Anyone who has seen the video would struggle to forget it.
The video in question featured a woman getting ready to jump off a huge cliff in the Spanish island of Mallorca but, at the last minute, she hesitates and quickly tries to back out ofjumping by grabbing a male friend's foot to steady herself.
Instead of saving her from falling, he pulls away and she awkwardly loses her footing and falls of the cliff.
The video went viral worldwide with most commenters expressing their fear for the woman - the video cut out after the fall - and others condemning the male for not grabbing her.
But finally, the identity of both in the video and whether or not the woman is okay has been revealed.
