Tarlac has declared a state of calamity after widespread flooding made major roads impassable and damaged homes, property and farmland. The Aquino and Agana bridges are key links between Tarlac City and western municipalities including Sta Ignacia, Mayantoc, Camiling, San Clemente and San Jose. Authorities are working on temporary bridge connections and alternative routes as monsoon rain continues across the province.

“I am not tied tight,” she could be heard saying in the footage.

According to reports, staff members allegedly ignored her concerns before launching the ride. Moments later, the harness detached, and Liu fell into the gorge below. She was rushed to the hospital but was declared dead on arrival, local authorities said.

The footage, recorded by friends who were with her at the park, has gone viral on Chinese social media and internationally, drawing widespread criticism over alleged negligence by staff at the attraction.

Authorities later described the incident as a “work safety liability accident caused by enterprise negligence.” The park has since been temporarily closed while investigations continue.

The case has become one of the most discussed travel-related incidents in China this year, with reports stating that the original video received more than 200 million views online.
