Influencer's Tragic Paragliding Accident Sparks Safety Debate

Influencer Dies After Unbuckling Paragliding Harness During Video Shoot A tragic accident claimed the life of 19-year-old influencer Tijana Radonjic in Budva, Montenegro, on May 28, 2025. Radonjic was participating in a promotional paragliding video when she unbuckled her safety harness, falling approximately 50 meters into the Adriatic Sea. The incident was captured on video by her cousin, who was present at the scene. "She seemed fine at first, but then she started to panic and unbuckled herself," said the cousin in an interview with local media. Emergency services recovered Radonjic's body, confirming her death. The company organizing the video shoot expressed its condolences and stated that Radonjic did not show any signs of fear before the flight. However, the investigation by the Kotor municipality's prosecutor's office will examine the training of personnel, the condition of the equipment, and the weather conditions on that day. This incident serves as a reminder of the inherent risks involved in extreme sports and the importance of safety precautions. The investigation will help determine if any negligence contributed to this tragedy.
