The park deeply regrets what happened, [and] is providing all assistance to the victim's family and supporting the bodies responsible for investigating the causes of the accident.
On 24 February 2012, 14-year-old Gabriela Yukari Nichimura died after falling from the La Tour Eiffel drop tower at the Hopi Hari amusement park in Vinhedo, São Paulo, Brazil.
[6] The tower allows participants enter into free fall from a height of 69.5 meters, or 228 feet (the equivalent of a 23-story building) at a speed of approximately 94 km/h (58.41 mph).
[5] Upon completion of the review and the signing of a Conduct Adjustment Term (CAT), the park was reopened on 25 March 2012, but the tower remained closed.
[13] After changes in the drop tower,[14] it was estimated to be back in August 2019,[15][16] but in June 2019 the management decided against its reopening, due to the need for US$480,000 to recover the equipment and the realization of marketing.
