Two influencers are dead after refusing to wear lifejackets on a speedboat that sank off the Brazilian coast – because they didn’t want the safety gear to ruin their tan in photos, according to police.
Aline Tamara Moreira de Amorim, 37, and Beatriz Tavares da Silva Faria, 27, ignored pleas to wear their life preservers when an overcrowded boat taking them back to shore from a yacht party capsized in the rough waters of Devil’s Throat along the Iguazu River, according to local reports.
“Some didn’t want to put them on because they were taking selfies,” Sao Vincente Police Commissioner Marcos Alexandra Alfino said, based on testimony by the boat’s captain.

They have influenced me to wear a life jacket whenever I ride in an overcrowded speedboat off the coast of Brazil.

Maybe they ended up influencing people to wear their life jackets, so a silver lining.

Well I guess they are posthumously influencing boat safety. Shame.

I would’ve figured that those two flotation devices on the front of them what kept them upright and above water
To: ChicagoConservative27
Influencers”? Funny how the English language is devolving. In a saner time in the past, these two would be considered narcissistic skanks.......
