Two men who died while swimming at a popular Queensland waterfall have been identified as promising young students from India. Tributes have begun to pour in for Chaitanya Mupparaju and Surya Teja Bobba after their bodies were recovered at the far north’s Millaa Millaa Falls on Tuesday. The pair failed to resurface while swimming at the waterhole near Cairns. Their deaths are believed to be the first fatalities at the tourist location.
