A 12-year-old girl from Maharashtra suffered serious injuries after falling nearly 30 feet into a gorge during a zipline ride in Manali, Himachal Pradesh. The incident, captured on video and widely circulated on social media, shows the girl plunging onto boulders below after the zipline rope attached to her harness suddenly snapped.

This is why adventure sports aren’t safe in India. In Manali, a young girl fell from a zipline—nearly 30 feet—and is now seriously injured. Anyone without proper experience starts these activities, and there’s no one to check. Action is only taken after a fatal accident happens. pic.twitter.com/Xy5LNYRDwe
