The program Fantástico revealed new details about a tragic incident in São Paulo, where a woman died after exposure to toxic gas released during a swimming lesson at C4 Gym. Vinícius de Oliveira, the husband, shared his harrowing experience in an exclusive video from the ICU, recounting the moment they both began to suffocate. He vividly describes the panic as they were swimming for about 15 minutes before noticing a chemical reaction that led to toxic gas filling the pool area.

Vinícius detailed that as he was struggling to breathe and reached the edge of the pool, he realized his wife, Juliana Bassetto, 27, was experiencing the same distressing symptoms. After initially attempting to escape for help, he courageously returned to assist her. They managed to get Juliana out of the water, but by the time they reached the lobby, she was still gasping for air and collapsed on the floor, showcasing the severe impact of the gas exposure.

This tragic event highlights the dangers associated with swimming in indoor pools and the potential hazards of gas leaks from cleaning chemicals or pool maintenance. The incident has raised concerns about safety protocols in recreational facilities, particularly regarding chemical management and emergency responses to such emergencies, prompting a public discussion on how to prevent future occurrences.
