Semi-naked lady catapulted off pure waterslide in horror video
A bikini-clad woman appeared to smash into rocks multiple times during a cliff jump at the Punch Bowls in Santa Paula Canyon, Southern California, in a viral video
The woman was hurled onto some jagged rocks
A bikini-clad woman was sent flying into jagged rocks after losing control on a natural waterslide in Southern California, US.
The shocking footage shows the woman hurtling down the slick granite chute at Santa Paula Punch Bowls in Ventura County. Then she smashes into the canyon wall beneath a rocky overhang.
She appears to hit the rocks several times before coming to a halt in the pool beneath, as shocked spectators watch on from the surrounding granite.
The Punch Bowls – nestled deep within the Santa Paula Canyon in Los Padres National Forest – have turned into a viral hotspot due to social media videos of visitors cliff-jumping, swimming and hurtling down the naturally sculpted rock chute into the emerald pools below.
The chilling video has gone viral
But the scenic swimming spot has also gained notoriety as one of Ventura County’s most perilous outdoor destinations.
Officials have consistently cautioned visitors that the polished granite becomes treacherously slippery when damp. Hidden rocks beneath the surface, rapidly flowing currents, precipitous cliff faces, and the location’s challenging landscape have led to countless severe incidents throughout the years.
The isolated setting also renders rescue operations particularly challenging, with injured walkers and swimmers often needing helicopter airlifts from the confined gorge.
Officials have consistently cautioned visitors
The most recent viral footage emerged weeks after a rambler died near the Punch Bowls following a tumble – contributing to the site’s extensive record of deadly and grave mishaps that have sparked ongoing alerts from officials.
Authorities have urged visitors to avoid taking needless chances at the swimming destination. They caution that pursuits such as cliff diving and racing down the natural water slide can turn extremely hazardous.
Despite these alerts, footage of bold leaps and high-velocity descents down the granite channel continues circulating across social platforms – attracting thousands of adrenaline junkies to the hidden canyon every year.
