Near Ushuaia, Argentina
November 3, 2022
A tourist identified by local media as a Brazilian man died near Argentina's southern city of Ushuaia after being hit by a block of ice that broke off the roof of a Patagonian cave, local police said on Thursday.
The accident occurred in an off-limits area on Wednesday afternoon in the so-called Cueva de Jimbo, an area with glaciers inside the Tierra del Fuego national park, located on the outskirts of Ushuaia some 1,907 miles (3,070 kilometers) south of Buenos Aires.
Ushuaia claims to be the world's southernmost city along with neighboring Chile's Puerto Williams.
A group of seven tourists had approached the cave, one of whom filmed the shocking moment when a chunk of ice broke off and fell on the man. Screaming can be heard in the video.
Police official Cristian Armani told Reuters the man had not been not been carrying a passport or identity card at the time of the excursion.
The man was traveling alone with his dog in a motor home, and was not related to the other tourists who had decided to follow the trail, marked with danger signs prohibiting entry.
"Entry is forbidden because ice and rock can fall from the roof of the cave," Armani said. "Cueva de Jimbo is at the foot of the glacier, it was formed naturally from rock and ice and gets eroded by the wind and thawing temperatures."

A factory worker in India was killed after his boss shot a burst of compressed air up his butt as a prank, destroying the man’s internal organs.
The incident happened in a foundry in the Kolhapur district of Maharashtra, India, earlier this month. As the Mirror reported, a man named Aditya Jadhav was engaging in some lighthearted pranks with his supervisor when the boss jokingly held an air pressure hose to the man’s back, then put it down his pants and released a blast of pressurized air.
Though it was meant as a joke, Jadhav was seriously injured and fell to the floor in pain, the report noted. The blast had accidentally sent the air up the man’s rear end, causing serious damage to his organs. Jadhav was rushed to a hospital, but died 15 days later from his injuries.
Video of the incident has spread around the internet, gaining some viral attention for its bizarre nature, and news outlets across the globe have reported on the factory worker’s strange death.
This is not the only time that a prank has accidentally turned fatal. Back in 2014, another viral video showed a group of students prank a classmate by wrapping him in cling wrap. As the Mirror reported, 17-year-old Sergei Casper was carried to a bathroom and dunked feet-first into a toilet, then brought back to his classroom.
But back inside the room, the prank took a horrible turn. While his legs were still bound, Casper attempted to hop but lost his balance, falling and striking his neck on the side of the teacher’s desk. Classmates began to laugh, not realizing that the fall had crushed the student’s throat.
They soon realized that Casper was badly hurt, and the student was rushed to a hospital but died of his injuries.
“He was a good guy, he never did anything bad to anyone and he was my friend. But the others just picked on him all the time,” said one of the student’s friends. “They seemed to think it was hilarious, and then they decided to take their prize back to the classroom where although the teacher was sitting at her desk, she did absolutely nothing to help him.”

Sari Salem Wardat, a father of five, had been serving an eight-month prison sentence for carrying an unlicensed weapon and resisting arrest, according to police and relatives, and was released two weeks early in line with special government measures to combat the spread of the novel coronavirus in Jordan. Police sources told Al Jazeera that Sari was a drug dealer and smuggler.
Ahmad Wardat is a member of Jordanian Armed Forces. Relatives who witnessed the shooting said he was using a seven-millimetre modified gun that frequently jammed. The relatives said that Ahmad “was not very bright”. They described a separate occasion several years ago when he fired a pump-action pellet shotgun during a wedding, wounding six people.
Relatives said the shooter said he thought he had fired all of his bullets not knowing that the last bullet had jammed in the magazine that killed Sari.
Hassan Wardat, a distant relative of both men, told Al Jazeera that the families of both men struck an ”Atwa” or a tribal peace agreement, after the shooting to prevent a potential “revenge killing” against the family of the shooter. “Immediately after the shooting, Awad, Sari’s brother, stood among the gathered crowd and said he forgave the shooter and his family for his brother’s blood”
The shooter has been detained and will likely face a murder charge, the police said.
thanks to @lft for the find!
1. Treat every gun as if it's loaded
2. don't point the gun at anything you are not willing to destroy
3. keep your fucking finger off the trigger until you're sure of your target
4. know your target and what's behind it

I don't know if he made it or not...couldn't find any details
By the looks of it in the video (along with the lack of help by his "friends") it doesn't look so good.
