 Rebecca Kim had just started her freshman year at Temple University when she uploaded a video to YouTube as part of a school project describing herself. Kim was visiting an eighth-floor apartment in Center City late Thursday afternoon when she climbed onto a ledge to take a picture. Kim hit a 44-year-old woman, who was walking on the 16th Street sidewalk. The pedestrian was taken to Hahnemann University Hospital, where she was listed in critical but stable condition Friday.

 A statement released by Temple University Friday morning read in part: 
 
 “It is with great sadness that I inform you of the death of Rebecca Kim, a first-year student in the College of Science and Technology. Ms. Kim started at Temple last August, was a resident of Johnson Hall and was enrolled in the pre-pharmacy program. Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends.” 
 
 A grief counselor was at the school Friday. Kim was visiting two friends at an Art Institute of Philadelphia dorm room when she fell just before 6 p.m. at the 1500 block of Chestnut Street. Students coming and going from the dorm Friday afternoon said they did not know Kim or the people she was visiting. It’s believed Kim may have slipped as she was going back inside.
– A visit with two male friends at their Art Institute of Philadelphia dorm ended tragically last night for a Temple University student after she fell to her death from an eighth-floor window, CBS Philly reports. "It is with great sadness that I inform you of the death of Rebecca Kim, a first-year student in the College of Science and Technology," reads this morning's statement from Temple University, which also lists Kim as a pre-pharmacy student. Kim, 18, hit a 44-year-old woman walking on the 16th Street sidewalk during her fall; the pedestrian, who was rushed to a local hospital, suffered a fractured spine and ribs (and lost a few teeth, according to CBS) and is said to be in critical but stable condition at a local hospital and expected to recover, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. Witnesses told police that Kim had stepped out onto what's been described as a 2-foot-wide window ledge to take pictures and apparently slipped when one of the dorm's residents asked her to come back in a little before 6pm. The resident said he looked out the window after she fell and saw her lying on the sidewalk below. Kim, who suffered severe head trauma, was transported to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, where she was pronounced dead, the Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Although police don't have anything to suggest the fall was anything other than a terrible accident, they'll be checking out surveillance tapes from nearby businesses and are in the process of getting a search warrant for the dorm room, according to the Post-Gazette.
