Instagram models drown to death after refusing to ruin tans with life jackets

As someone who has always been fascinated by the glamorous world of social media influencers, this tragic story leaves me utterly disheartened and saddened. The lives of Aline Tamara Moreira de Amorim and Beatriz Tavares da Silva Faria were cut short due to a reckless disregard for safety, a decision that ultimately cost them their lives.


Two Instagram models ignored their boat captain’s advice to put on life jackets, leading tragically to their drowning after the boat overturned.

Tragically, Instagram models Aline Tamara Moreira de Amorim, aged 37, and Beatriz Tavares da Silva Faria, 27, lost their lives on September 29, after the speedboat they were traveling in overturned, resulting in drowning.

As they were being transported back to land following a yacht party at Devil’s Throat on the Iguazu River in Brazil, the women met their unfortunate end due to the overcrowding of the speedboat, causing it to submerge.

As a gamer, I heard whispers about those Instagram models ignoring safety advice, choosing not to don life jackets for fear it would mess up their sun-kissed glow or snapshots. Later confirmed by the police.

“Some folks weren’t keen on wearing them due to snapping selfies, according to Commissioner Marcos Alexandra Alfino. Instead, they preferred to ditch them for a better tan.

As per the speedboat captain’s account, he was requested to transport six individuals back to land. Despite his vessel only accommodating five, he consented to ferry the whole party. The authorities stated that the challenging sea conditions, coupled with the weight they were carrying, eventually caused the passengers to be tossed into the water.

The boat’s captain informed the authorities that he tried to rescue the passengers, yet unfortunately, he wasn’t able to assist the models quickly enough.

Firefighters at Sea rescued Faria’s lifeless body, while Amorim’s body was discovered on Itaquitanduva Beach a week following the incident.

In the final instants before her passing, Amorim shared images on social media, showcasing herself on a yacht. In these pictures, she was sporting a stylish baby blue bikini and complementary wrap.

After the unfortunate incident that led to their demise, one of the survivors, Vanessa Audrey da Silva, recounted how she clung onto a rock as their speedboat overturned. “For a brief instant in the water,” she explained, “no one could spot anyone else.” She emphasized that it was a desperate struggle for her to survive.

Additionally, over the past few months, other social media personalities have tragically passed away too. For instance, Ana Fabiola, an Instagram model, was discovered stabbed to death at her residence in October. Before that, TikToker Demaris Martinez met with a fatal accident when she was hit by two cars while crossing a bustling highway in September.
