However, as she approaches a sharp turn, she comes in too fast and slams into a spectator, sending them and others toppling over like dominoes.
Despite the collision, the skater sits up laughing, seemingly uninjured. She checks on the person she crashed into before standing back up.
The light-hearted accident took place at the twice-yearly event known as the Loma Hill Bomb, where thrill-seeking skaters from across South America gather to tackle the steep incline.
Minor accidents are common, but this one sparked plenty of jokes among onlookers.
One local quipped, “He just found the love of his life.”
Another added, “And suddenly one lucky day, that’s how I met your mother.”
Camilo humorously compared the scene to “human bowling,” while Leonardo remarked, “Only in Colombia do you get a speed bump followed by a sharp bend at the finish line.”
Molly commented, “Terrifying to go down the hill at that speed, but at least she crashed into the crowd and not a wall. People are crazy.”
The Loma Hill Bomb is a popular event that attracts skaters from all over the continent, despite its reputation for minor mishaps along the way.
