Tragedy struck at Mirabilandia amusement park in Olinda, Brazil when a woman, Davine Muniz Cordeiro, lost her life four months after a terrible incident on a swing carousel ride. The 34-year-old English language teacher was strapped into a swing chair on the wave swinger when it suddenly broke free and sent her flying through the air on September 22 of last year.
Upon impact with the ground, Davine suffered a traumatic brain injury and multiple body fractures. She was immediately rushed to the hospital where she underwent 10 surgeries over the course of four months. However, despite the best efforts of medical professionals, she tragically lost her life at Hapvida Hospital in Fortaleza yesterday.
The ride in question features several swings attached to a rotating structure by chains, and according to local media, it rises to a height of 12 meters and slowly oscillates to mimic the motion of a wave. It was during this routine movement that Davine's swing somehow became detached from the structure and spun through the air at a high speed.
Video footage captured the moment of the accident, showing the swings turning around before the sound of Davine's swing hitting the ground can be heard. In a statement to local media, the administration of Mirabilandia Park expressed their condolences to the family of Davine, stating that they were deeply saddened by the loss and that their thoughts and prayers were with them.
The park also mentioned that they had suspended the wave swinger "preventively" in order to conduct a thorough evaluation of the equipment. They further extended their sympathies, acknowledging that no words could truly bring comfort in such a tragic situation, especially for a park that strives to bring joy and entertainment to its guests.
As the investigations into the incident continue, the administration of Mirabilandia Park hopes that Davine's passing will be received with the utmost respect and honor as she transitions to the next stage of her journey. Our hearts go out to the family and loved ones of Davine Muniz Cordeiro during this difficult time.
