  1. Stop doing dumb stuff and you’ll be ok

  2. So so sad. May her family receive support during this time. A girl from my high school and her fiancé both passed away from severe injuries due to a parasailing accident in the Florida Keys as well.

  3. Why is there no OUTRAGE about what the captain did????? He killed someone ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

  4. Were they informed of this possibility before as a safety briefing?

  5. The captain did WHAT???!!!

  6. Criminal Negligence. Callous. Fox News is already covering for the boat captain line cutter.

  7. I never feel badly when I hear about accidents in recreational activities that are begging for accidents to happen. You wanted to experience a life-endangering rush? Be careful what you wish for. What a dumb hobby. "At least she died doing what she loved" is rationalizing the stupidity of the "victim." There are so many safer AND SMARTER hobbies and activities. People act like they are indestructible video game characters now. I imagine this person trying to hit the "off" switch.

  8. I guess we need tougher parasailing laws and blame the parachute manufacturer.

  9. still better than living in bidens economy

  10. How can the captain cut the cord? How is that allowed?

  11. This is sad. Mother nature is cruel.

  12. Jesus was calling her home.

  13. The moment they went to FL, they F up!!!

  14. FROM THE BEST EXPERIENCE IN THEIR LIFE

    YA RIGHT LYING CON MAN

    USING THIS TRAGEDY AS A PROMOTION… WHAT A AHOLE

  15. Play stupid games win stupid prizes

  16. You can’t cut the line! Put on life jackets and let the boat go under…. The owners just let people literally blow in the wind… this is like cutting a bungee cord when the shark is waiting in the water for ya!

  17. If Lighthouse Parasail’s website still claims it has a “spotless safety record,” they need to delete that claim. Edit: I checked and the claim is still on the website as of June 1.

  18. Proverbs 20:27- The spirit of man is the lamp of the Lord, Searching all the innermost parts of his being.

    Proverbs 4:23- Watch over your heart with all diligence, For from it flow the springs of life.

    Proverbs 17:22- A joyful heart is good medicine, But a broken spirit dries up the bones

    Proverbs 18:14- The spirit of a man can endure his sickness, But as for a broken spirit who can bear it?

    Proverbs 15:13- A joyful heart makes a cheerful face, But when the heart is sad, the spirit is broken.

  19. Definitely sue the parasailing company

  20. That is the thing about life. None of us know how we will exit this world…well…unless it's suicide.

  21. Oh no. So unfortunate. Wishing the family comfort for their grief.

  22. STILL nothing on Nancy Pelosi's husband getting arrested over the weekend 🤔

  23. Unfortunate loss, Rest In Peace.

  24. Rest in peace to the mother and wishing the kids a quick recovery
