On the 24th, NHK reported a story about a woman who was skiing at the "Kagura Ski Resort" in Yuzawa Town.
The woman accidentally fell while skiing and was completely buried by the snow. By the time the woman was taken to the hospital, she had no signs of life. Despite the best efforts of the doctors, she did not survive and was pronounced dead in the hospital.
It is understood that the unfortunate woman is a 27-year-old Chinese tourist surnamed Fu. Her companion told ** that after seeing her fall, he was very scared because he was a novice skier, so he couldn't come forward in time to help.
The incident took place in an area of the ski resort suitable for skilled skiers, and due to the risk of avalanches due to excessive snowfall, the ski resort has banned visitors from entering the area.
At present, further investigation is underway into the circumstances of the incident to understand how the woman entered the restricted area, as well as more details of the accident.
This accident is a wake-up call for us to pay attention to ski safety and strictly follow the rules and instructions of the ski resort.
Ski resorts should set up clear warning signs to remind visitors to pay attention to safety and follow the rules of skiing.
At the same time, ski resorts should strengthen patrols to ensure that tourists do not ski in restricted areas, and to detect and rescue tourists in distress in a timely manner.
In this accident, although the patrol arrived in time and carried out the rescue, the accident has already occurred, which is an irreparable fact.
Visitors should fully understand the rules and instructions of the ski resort, choose the ski area that suits them, and do not venture into the restricted area.
Before skiing, you should study and train enough to master basic skiing skills and safety knowledge.
When skiing, you should always be vigilant, pay attention to the surrounding environment and situation, and follow the order and rules of the ski resort.
For beginners or those with poor skills, it is advisable to choose a ski area that suits your level and do not risk challenging areas.
In case of emergency, you should call for help and ask for help in time. Don't hesitate to delay the best rescue time because of fear or other reasons.
We need to recognize that skiing is a high-risk sport with certain safety risks. We can't blindly pursue excitement and fun at the expense of safety.
Only by abiding by the rules, staying vigilant, and improving their own safety awareness can they protect their lives to the greatest extent.
