SÃO PAULO — The shocking moment that a Brazilian thrill-seeker died in front of his family in a bungee jump gone horribly wrong has been captured on video. <br /> <br />The incident happened on Sunday in São Paulo state, when Fabio Ezequiel de Moraes, 36, thought it would be a good idea to jump off a 130-foot high railway bridge with an elastic cord tied around his ankle. <br /> <br />The only problem with that was nobody had checked to see if the cord was too long. <br /> <br />Moraes slammed head-first into the ground, the Sun reported, citing Brazilian newspaper Reporter Diario. <br /> <br />First responders arrived on the scene and rushed Moraes to the hospital but the head trauma proved too great, and he died soon afterward. <br /> <br />Things could have been a lot worse, though. Moraes originally planned to jump with his 6-year-old son, but decided at the last minute that he would do it solo. <br /> <br />Sadly however, the poor boy witnessed his father’s tragic death. Moraes’ horrified wife, brother, and his brother’s girlfriend also watched the fatal bungee jump. <br /> <br />Moraes hired a team of extreme sports specialists to help him do the jump. Police seized the team’s equipment and were investigating Moraes’ death.
