Years ago, when jokes started circulating about taking a selfie<\/a> from the top of a building potentially leading to a deadly fall, or looking at your phone causing you to be run over by a truck, nobody was fully aware of the real level of danger<\/strong> that influencers (and those aspiring to be) could face in their quest to look better in photos or become the most viral in the world. If the other day we talked about the Chinese influencer who died from excessive alcohol consumption, today we need to talk about Lygia Fazio.<\/p>\n\n\n

A million followers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Lygia Fazio, a Brazilian journalist, had 955,000 followers on Instagram<\/strong>, but she wanted to improve her appearance in photos as she entered her forties to feel better about herself, something common among influencers<\/a> as they age. After all, it’s a demanding job that doesn’t forgive. That’s why she decided to undergo a buttock operation, unaware that it would be her end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the surgery, industrial silicone and polymethyl methacrylate, both prohibited in Brazil<\/a> for such procedures, were injected into her body. Things went wrong, they spread throughout her body, causing multiple infections, and ultimately leading to a stroke<\/strong> that ended her life after years of battling against this medical negligence. It seems that Fazio had a penchant for underground aesthetic clinics, which had previously worked out for her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It should be noted that the first news of influencers (or Instagram<\/a> culture) dying due to carelessness dates back to 2011 when three teenagers posed in front of a Union Pacific train to upload the photo on Facebook<\/strong>, along with the caption “Standing in front of a train! Hahaha, this is amazing!”. Since then, the list has become unmanageably long, giving us an idea that perhaps obsessing over physical appearance has always been a mistake. It may be entertaining, but it’s still a mistake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By the way, the highest number of people killed at once while seeking the best photo was 11 in India during July 2021. In the midst of an electrical storm, they approached a tower where a lightning bolt had just struck<\/strong>, hoping to capture another strike for a spectacular shot. They got the first part, not the second, of course. Be careful with your ego!<\/p>\n\n\n
