Описание: Moment woman, 21, is thrown to her death after 'staff forgot to attach rope' during bungee jump in Brazil
A female bungee jumper plunged more than 130ft to her death after staff 'forgot' to attach her rope before throwing her from a bridge.

Footage captured from various angles shows the 21-year-old being calmly carried by two workers before being hurled over the edge of Skeleton Bridge, in Limeira, in the Brazilian state of Sao Paulo.

But none seemed to be aware the safety rope was not actually attached to her body.

Tragically the victim, who has been named locally as Maria Eduarda Rodrigues de Freitas, had posted photographs of her jump wristbands and the bridge just moments before the incident.

A female bungee jumper plunged more than 130ft to her death after staff 'forgot' to attach her rope before throwing her from a bridge.

Footage captured from various angles shows the 21-year-old being calmly carried by two workers before being hurled over the edge of Skeleton Bridge, in Limeira, in the Brazilian state of Sao Paulo.

But none seemed to be aware the safety rope was not actually attached to her body.

Tragically the victim, who has been named locally as Maria Eduarda Rodrigues de Freitas, had posted photographs of her jump wristbands and the bridge just moments before the incident.

Underneath one poignant photograph, she wrote on her Instagram: 'Who was the crazy person who let me come jump off a bridge?'

Video taken at the scene shows the young woman being taken to the edge by the staff before being thrown into the ravine.

Bystanders can then be heard frantically shouting in the background, 'the rope, people, the rope', in the seconds after she was released
