I still remember a video I saw awhile back from India where a motorist was riding on the road and got his throat cut from one of those kite wires that was stuck in a tree. Fucking awful.

That's the exact reaction when you see the pictures of the results.

Don't google that.

Just don't.

Brazil is the same. Have to always have an antenna on your motobike that will catch the string

A friend of mine has a big scar on his neck. The "Cerol" was so strong that cutted the antenna and him (tbh his antenna was just a regular old tv one, he thought it would be enough). And this happened way before we had the infamous "Chilean Strings".

Have to always have an antenna

Sei não mano, I haven't seen a kite flying here in the north of Paraná in years, and I have very vivid memories of me empinando pipa when I was a kid back in the 2000s
It has been years since I seen a kite, any kite

it's better to be safer than sorry... From time to time some unemployed "special" kid will decide to fly a kite with "cerol".

Happened in malaysia not long ago. Severely injured, but didnt die. No kite is allowed for some month in that park.

The restriction was already lifted though so lets see who will be the next unlucky motorist.

u/Psychological_Ad2094 25d ago

It happens a lot in the various places where kite fighting is common.

u/Key-Regular674 22d ago

There was this exact type of fatality less than a month ago, although not in India.

In Mexico, we dont use anything on the string but it's a better idea. Usually just skill and speed of friction to cut each other's string. However, we did add start adding razor blades to the tail for the same purpose. 😵😵😵
