Pune, April 21, 2025 – What began as a joyful family outing ended in tragedy when a young woman lost her life while ziplining at a well-known water park. The incident has raised serious concerns about safety measures at adventure parks, leaving a grieving family shattered and demanding accountability.
The victim, a 28-year-old software engineer, was enjoying a day out with her family during the summer vacation. The group had spent hours laughing, playing games, and making memories before deciding to end the day with the thrilling zipline ride. Little did they know it would be their last moment of joy together.
As the young woman stepped onto an unstable iron stool to reach the zipline’s safety harness, the stool gave way. She lost her balance, crashing onto a side railing before plummeting nearly 30 feet onto a hard cement surface. There were no safety nets or proper fall prevention measures in place, the impact was so disturbing. she was declared dead before going to hospital.
Her family, still in shock, struggles to come to terms with the sudden loss. Just three years ago, they had lost her father to a prolonged illness, leaving her as the sole breadwinner. Her mother, a homemaker who took up small tailoring jobs to make ends meet, had been eagerly planning her daughter’s wedding later this year. Now, instead of preparing for celebrations, the family is left grappling with an unbearable void.
Initial reports suggest the park lacked essential precautions—no emergency nets, unstable equipment, and inadequate harness fittings—raising questions about how such negligence went unchecked.
As the probe continues, the grieving family seeks not compensation, but justice—and the assurance that no other family will endure such a preventable tragedy. The incident serves as a grim reminder of the consequences when adventure turns into recklessness, and fun is overshadowed by fatal oversight.
