Woman Hurled 40m to Death After Safety Rope Blunder
- A 24-year-old woman died last Saturday during a bungee jump at Skeleton Bridge, an abandoned structure between Limeira and Cordeir in Brazil, after staff failed to attach her safety rope, according to CNN Brasil.
- Witnesses reported the tragedy stemmed from basic negligence by Entre Cordas, the operator; staff failed to check the rope despite three people jumping successfully before the victim.
- The woman plummeted about 35 meters after staff neglected to secure the rope; she had paid about $290 for the jump, which included video documentation.
- Shortly after the incident, the company deleted its Instagram account and removed a WhatsApp group, while Police stopped staff who initially attempted to leave the scene.
- Local officials have long warned against using the site due to lack of safety infrastructure, and Police are investigating the circumstances, though no arrests have been reported so far.
