A shocking video circulating across social media made headlines after a woman from Indonesia was seen tripping on a treadmill while exercising and falling from the third floor.

She was later taken to a hospital but despite efforts from doctors, the woman tragically passed away. An autopsy showcased that she suffered from severe bruising on the head.

Pontianak’s Police stated that it’s dangerous to place treadmills behind windows at the gym with only 60 centimeters between them. They also added that the low height of the wall which was just shy of 30 centimeters made it easy for women to fall through.

Indonesia’s Pontianak Police Criminal Investigation Unit suspected that people at the gym might’ve opened several windows behind the treadmills and a sign was also placed saying not to do so. On the other hand, it seems that the sign was damaged making it unclear if people can open open the windows or not.

According to local news outlets, a personal trainer who works there usually closed the windows but was on a break when the incident occurred.
