A 31-year-old man fell to his death while climbing a coconut tree at Kampung Rantau Abang, Dungun this morning.

It was believed that Mohd Fariq Fyrdaus Harun was looking for coconuts in preparation for his son's Aqiqah ceremony.

In the 11am incident, Mohd Fariq was busy plucking the fruits when he slipped and fell 30 metres off the tree.

His two friends and passers-by who witnessed the incident immediately rushed the victim to the Dungun hospital for treatment.

However, he succumbed to his injuries upon arrival.

Mohd Fariq left behind his wife Khairunnisa Salem aged 29, and two sons, Mohd Fayyad Mohd Fariq Fyrdaus, aged two, as well as his 29-day-old baby Mohd Firdan Mohd Fariq Fyrdaus.
