Woman d!es after workers forget to attach safety rope and push her off 40-meter bridge (Video)

A 21-year-old woman, Maria Eduarda Rodrigues de Freitas, died after falling from a bridge during a bungee jumping event in Limeira, São Paulo, Brazil, on Saturday.

Witnesses alleged that she was thrown from the bridge without being attached to a safety rope, causing her to fall about 40 metres to the ground.

A video circulating on social media reportedly shows staff pushing her from the bridge before onlookers noticed the rope had been left behind.

Rescue teams, including a police helicopter, were dispatched to the scene, but she was pronounced dead upon arrival.

De Freitas, a physical education and sports management graduate, had earlier shared photos and videos from the event on social media.

Authorities arrested six people in connection with the incident, including three who were charged with homicide. Investigators say the event organisers allegedly lacked proper authorization and are examining whether negligence led to the fatal accident.
