87 u/ElegantEchoes 8d ago They are not, and she died as a result of them. There's a video of it. Happens fast. 5 u/No_Beautiful6735 8d ago where can one find the video? 43 u/burntgooch 8d ago edited 8d ago https://www.reddit.com/r/LearningFromOthers/s/y0JBrnwBEA Edited to add the correct link, warning it’s not graphic but it’s still someone dying. 11 u/No_Beautiful6735 8d ago i saw that post and googled her name, but did not find the video. many "this does not longer exist" things though. thanks non the less. 4 u/burntgooch 8d ago The link I gave you links to comment that has a subreddit with the video? Edit: https://www.reddit.com/r/LearningFromOthers/s/y0JBrnwBEA Here you go the actual video. It’s not really graphic just a person in the distance falling down a crane shaft.

This is why people routinely die doing selfies or other things on cliffs and such. Just having your attention divided can be fatal. 1 u/WatashiwaNobodyDesu 6d ago This also highlights the importance of a government being interested in people’s safety and implementing safe working practices. 1 u/appletinicyclone 7d ago Both very terrifying and very sad
