Tragedy in Chinácota: Woman Dies After Accident on Water Slide

A 28-year-old woman, identified as Yiris Cristel García, originally from Tibú, Norte de Santander, lost her life in Chinácota, Norte de Santander, after sliding down a water slide at a tourist attraction.

According to initial reports, Yiris climbed onto a tire that was to slide her down to the lower part of the slide while an instructor indicated the correct way to position herself. At the moment of descent, screams were heard, and it is presumed that the woman tripped or suffered a blow that caused her fatal fall.

Authorities have launched investigations to clarify the facts, focusing especially on whether the attraction had the appropriate safety measures in place to ensure the integrity of visitors.

That’s not a water slide. What a weird write up.

Thank God for the internet... Stories that would've never made it to the US without...

Or the National Enquirer would've done a story on it a year later...

The first inclination of trouble was that there was no water to be found on that slide.

Judging by the video I'm guessing that on that hard left turn the tube went left and she kept going straight over the edge.

Does the water park want a better quality of clientele?

This is going to bother me because the odds of an update that diagrams this out and what went wrong with her specifically is probably low.
