A woman died and two children were seriously hurt when their parasail hit a bridge in the Florida Keys. This came after the captain severed the line connecting them to the boat, authorities say.

The tragic incident happened, on Monday, close to 5:30 p.m. Supraja Alaparthi, 33, had been parasailing with her son Sriakshith Alaparthi, 10, and her nephew Vishant Sadda, 9.

An incident report was made by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. It said the wind began to blow so fiercely that it caused the parasail to peg. Then the parasail was managed by the wind and not the captain. This caused the vessel to become unsafe.

“Under normal parasailing operations, it is the operation of the vessel. In particular, it is the speed of the vessel that creates the wind to lift the parasail into the air. The operator of the vessel controls the height of the parasail by increasing or decreasing the speed of the vessel. This enables the parasail operator to safely conduct and control parasailing operations,” the agency documented.

The captain, Daniel Couch, “cut the line tethered to three victims,” subsequent to the parasail being pegged,” reports note.

  1. Do you have a spam issue on this website; I also am a blogger, and I
    was wondering your situation; we have created some nice methods and we are looking to trade
    methods with other folks, why not shoot me an e-mail if
    interested.

  2. My programmer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from
    PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
    But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using
    WordPress on a number of websites for about a year and am concerned about
    switching to another platform. I have heard excellent things about
    blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress content into it?
    Any help would be really appreciated!

  3. Hi there would you mind stating which blog platform you’re
    using? I’m planning to start my own blog soon but I’m having a tough time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most
    blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
    P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!
