A bungee instructor accused of throwing a\u00a0young\u00a0woman\u00a0to her death with no jump cord\u00a0has been pictured performing stunts with children.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Maria Eduarda Rodrigues de Freitas, 21, died after she was launched from the Skeleton bridge\u00a0in Limeira, Brazil, on Saturday, without the crucial bungee cord attached to her.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The three men who allegedly\u00a0did not attach the security rope said previously they \u2018can\u2019t remember\u2019 who was meant to place it on.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bungee employees Luis Felipe Feliciano Egoroff, 32, Maicon Fernandes Cintra, 42, and Vitor de Freitas Goncalves, 27, allegedly\u00a0didn\u2019t\u00a0clip on Maria\u2019s safety\u00a0rope.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

They’ve been charged with homicide after being detained following an alleged try to flee Limeira. <\/p>\n

Footage has surfaced appearing to indicate Egoroff perform bungee stunts with children off the Skeleton\u00a0bridge\u00a0as a part of his job.\u00a0<\/p>\n

One clip\u00a0from 2023\u00a0shows a baby wearing a helmet\u00a0and a harness\u00a0clinging onto a person believed to be Egoroff before he\u00a0jumps down from the sting of the bridge.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

In other footage shared on social media, Egoroff performs a backflip off the identical location by himself.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ms Rodrigues de Freitas had been enthusiastic about her trip beforehand, which involved doing a bungee jump. <\/p>\n

She posted an image of the rope operator Entre Cordas\u2019s banner and caption \u2018Who was the crazy one who let me jump off a bridge?\u2019 <\/p>\n

The mum of Ms Rodrigues de Freitas said at her funeral on Sunday: \u2018That damned rope took you away from me perpetually.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u2018My beloved daughter, you’re gone, and all that is still here is pain and longing.\u00a0I’ll love you perpetually.\u2019<\/p>\n
