On Saturday, a large rock fragment broke free of a ravine and plunged onto four boats in Furnas Lake in Brazil's eastern Minas Gerais state, as panicked tourists watched helplessly from other vessels.
Tourists flock to see the cliffs, caverns and waterfalls that surround the green waters of Lake Furnas, formed by the hydroelectric dam of the same name.One such video showed the minute before the incident, with several people warning that"lots of stones are falling" and yelling at the occupants of other boats to move away from the rock face.
My friend"came to the Capitolio area to celebrate his birthday, he would have turned 25 this Sunday, but was killed a day earlier," Rodrigues told AFP while waiting amid great anguish.
