The video captures the chilling moment Dhawde tries to grab hold of rocks to pull himself out of the water but is swept away by the strong current. A video that has gone viral on social media shows the heart-wrenching moment a young boy, identified as Swapnil Dhawde, attempted a life-threatening stunt by jumping into a fast-flowing waterfall at Tamini Ghat. The video captures the chilling moment Dhawde tries to grab hold of rocks to pull himself out of the water but is swept away by the strong current.
The boy’s body was found three days later following a search operation. The picturesque beauty of Lonavala’s waterfalls has tragically turned deadly in recent days, with two separate incidents claiming the lives of several individuals, highlighting the dangers of these seemingly serene natural wonders. This incident follows closely on the heels of a similar tragedy where a family of seven was swept away by the raging waters of a swollen waterfall near Bhushi Dam in Lonavala.
The video of the incident shows the family holding onto each other desperately trying to resist the powerful water flow, but tragically they are pulled into the water one by one. The tragedy has claimed the lives of four family members, including two young children, while the search continues for the remaining missing individuals. The recent heavy rainfall in the region has led to an unexpected surge in water levels, making these waterfalls incredibly dangerous.
Despite warning signs and pleas for cauti.
