Speaking through their own interpreter, Mr Wang's travelling companions told police it had been an accident.

A local police chief, Hubert Meriaux, was quoted as saying by Reuters news agency that Mr Wang had been trying to get his family to take a picture of him when he fell.
According to various sources, he fell between 12m (39ft) and 15m (49ft).
His widow was expected to arrive in the region on Wednesday, according to France Bleu.
