Ballet dancer Juliana Carvalho Nasser, 27, dies after being run over by pal’s jet ski in killer stunt off Brazil beach
Juliana Carvalho Nasser, 27, was struck by the ski so forcefully that it knocked her off and ran over her off the coast of a beach in Sao Paulo. She was taken to Santo Amaro Hospital but was declared dead after medics could not revive her.
The dancer, along with her female friend, went for a ski ride with three other men when the crash occurred. Her female friend, despite not knowing how to operate a jet ski, took over the controls from one of the guys and started performing stunts.
Witnesses told police that Juliana's friend made a "very dangerous" high-speed U-turn in front of an approaching speedboat. As her jet ski headed towards the coast, it collided with and drove over Juliana's craft, throwing her and her male friend into the water.
Injured Juliana was unconscious and face down in the water until rescuers could pull her out and rush her to the back of a pick-up truck to a doctor. Her companion suffered a leg injury, according to local media reports.
The fatal incident occurred on March 10th, but police have now stated that Juliana's friend is being investigated over the death. Guaruja police chief Antonio Sucupira Neto said the accused had "assumed the risk" when she took over the jet ski's controls.
This incident follows a tragedy where a woman died after her jet ski crashed off the coast of the island of Gran Canaria. The 28-year-old lost control of her jet ski, causing it to hit the rocks of a breakwater.
Emergency responders were immediately alerted, and paramedics rushed to the scene. Despite efforts to resuscitate her, the woman was pronounced dead on the scene.
Similarly, in another unfortunate incident, a 49-year-old woman died after sustaining severe injuries when she fell off a jet ski driven by her husband. Reports indicated that her husband accelerated as she fell, leading to a rupture in her groin due to the jet propulsion.
In yet another heartbreaking event, an 11-year-old British girl died while on holiday in Turkey in August 2023. Yagnmur Koseoglu was on the back of her dad’s jet ski when another craft collided with them at high speed, instantly killing the youngster.
