Chilling final post of bungee jumper who plummeted to death after she was thrown with no cord

A bungee jumper shared an ominous last post before she horrifically plummeted 130 feet to her death in Brazil.

Maria Eduarda Rodrigues de Freitas, 21, jokingly wrote “Who was the crazy person who let me jump off a bridge???” on her Instagram story Saturday before she went on what she thought would be a thrilling bungee jumping adventure in Limeira, São Paulo.
