Ballet dancer Juliana Carvalho Nasser, 27, dies after being run over by pal’s jet ski in killer stunt off Brazil beach
A BALLERINA has tragically died after being run over by a pal’s jet ski during a killer stunt in Brazil.
Juliana Carvalho Nasser, 27, was hit by the ski so hard that it knocked her off and ran over her off the coast of a beach in Sao Paolo.
She was taken to Santo Amaro Hospital but was declared dead after medics could not revive her.
The dancer, along with her female friend, went for a ski ride along with three other men when the crash happened.
Her female friend, despite not knowing how to operate a jet ski, took over the controls from one of the guys and started performing stunts.
Witnesses told cops Juliana's friend made a "very dangerous" high-speed U-turn in front of an approaching speedboat.
