The Walf Estate in Bonito, Brazil, was shut down by the Fire Department following a tragic incident where two young men, 29-year-old Gustavo Henrique Camargo and 20-year-old Pedro Henrique de Jesus, died while using a zip line during a wedding. The Civil Police are investigating whether the two men were electrocuted while on the zip line, raising serious concerns about safety procedures at the establishment. The circumstances surrounding their deaths have prompted inquiries into how the zip line was energized at the time of the incident.

The Fire Department revealed that the estate operated without the necessary authorization and was not permitted to host events or rent out its facilities. This raises significant issues regarding regulatory compliance and the safety measures expected of such recreational facilities. The establishment lacked a working certificate from the Fire Department, which is mandatory for ensuring public safety during events.

Investigation teams were dispatched to the location to examine the possible improper electrification of the zipping mechanism. The events were first reported to the Civil Police by hospital staff after Pedro was admitted following the incident. The investigation will seek to unravel the details of how this clandestine operation was allowed to continue and whether any negligence contributed to the tragic loss of life.
