Brazil Considers Ban on Dangerous Kite Battles
Aug 21, 2024, 12:56 PM
In Brazil, a dangerous trend involving kites equipped with razor-sharp strings is raising safety concerns and calls for a national ban. These kites, used in competitive battles to cut opponents' lines, have been linked to numerous deaths and serious injuries. The issue has gained attention as groups of individuals engage in these kite battles, particularly in areas like Rio de Janeiro's Ipanema beach. The practice, seen as both a sport and a perilous activity, is prompting authorities to consider regulatory measures to prevent further harm.
