A tragic incident occurred during a tug-of-war world record attempt in Makassar, Indonesia, where a woman lost her life due to a freak accident. The incident took place on December 18, as 5,294 individuals were preparing to participate in the event.
During the attempt, the 1,540-metre-long rope recoiled, causing the victim, Masita B., to stumble and be dragged across the tarmac. This resulted in her head colliding with a concrete divider, leading to severe head trauma and the tragic loss of her life.
Following the accident, distressing scenes unfolded as videos showed Masita lying in a pool of her own blood on the tarmac, surrounded by horrified onlookers. The cause of her death was confirmed to be severe head trauma.
