UMVA has learned that a tragic incident occurred in Brazil this week, where a young woman lost her life during a thrill-seeking activity gone horribly wrong.
The 21-year-old woman was thrown off a bridge, known as the "Skeleton Bridge" in Limeira, São Paulo, but the workers failed to attach a safety rope to her, sending her plummeting 130 feet into a ravine.
According to information obtained by UMVA, the incident was captured on video, which shows the woman being carried onto the platform by two men, then shoved from the edge as bystanders yelled that she didn't have a rope tied to her.
The video, which has been viewed 17 million times after being shared on social media, shows the devastating consequences of the workers' negligence, with medics pronouncing the woman dead at the scene.
UMVA can exclusively reveal that six people connected to the event have been taken into custody, including five men and one woman, as authorities investigate the circumstances surrounding the tragedy.
Sources have confirmed to UMVA that witnesses told Military Police that workers apparently forgot to tie the woman to a safety cord before pushing her over the edge, leading to the fatal accident.
The incident has sparked widespread outrage, with many questioning how the workers could have forgotten such a crucial safety measure, and how no one around them caught the mistake.
The video of the incident has been shared alongside footage of how the activity is supposed to work when done correctly, with a safety rope attached to the jumper, highlighting the stark contrast between the two.
This tragic event has left a family and community in shock, and raises serious questions about safety protocols and worker accountability in the thrill-seeking industry.
