“Tragedy in Brazil: 21-Year-Old Woman Dies After Bungee Jump Reportedly Goes Wrong When Safety Cord Is Allegedly Not Attached — Her Final Post Now Haunts Social Media” ! What was meant to be an exciting adventure in Limeira, São Paulo reportedly turned into a devastating tragedy when 21-year-old Maria Eduarda Rodrigues de Freitas fell 130 feet during a bungee jump after an alleged critical safety failure. Her lighthearted final Instagram story has since gone viral, adding a haunting layer to the incident as authorities continue to investigate how the fatal mistake occurred.

A bungee jumper shared an ominous last post before she horrifically plummeted 130 feet to her death in Brazil.

Maria Eduarda Rodrigues de Freitas, 21, jokingly wrote “Who was the crazy person who let me jump off a bridge???” on her Instagram story Saturday before she went on what she thought would be a thrilling bungee jumping adventure in Limeira, São Paulo.

Instead, de Freitas fell to her death after the bungee company failed to attach a cord to her harness as they hurled her over the cliffside, O Globo reported.

A sickening video posted on social media captured de Freitas being thrown off the edge of the “Skeleton Bridge” without her bungee cord after the grim joke, the Brazilian outlet said.

The witness filming could then be heard shouting, “Guys, the rope!” and pointing to the crucial safety device lying on the ground.

De Freitas, a physical education and sports management student, was pronounced dead at the scene, the outlet said.

Her fiancé was watching on as she plummeted to her death, according to cops.
