Asian influencer injured on Changi Airport slide: Safety concerns arise

Koey Har, an Asian influencer, took advantage of one of the local attractions at Singapore Changi Airport. Unfortunately, it did not end safely for her. "Oh my God..." she lamented in a video posted on social media.

Singapore Changi Airport is considered one of the world's best and most modern airports. The interior looks exceptionally impressive with its cacti, orchids, palms, and other tropical plants. Of course, the gigantic waterfall makes the greatest impression on tourists. But that's not all.

In the newest terminal, opened in 2017, there is even a slide. All tourists can use it. This interesting alternative to stairs and elevators is especially popular with the youngest travellers. The Asian influencer Koey Har decided to try it out. Unfortunately, she soon regretted it.

She published a video on her Instagram profile showing her ride down the slide. The woman gained a lot of speed and then hit her head on the inside of the tube, consequently cutting it. "It was painful," she admitted.

Since the woman had already taken a flight to Bali, she did not have enough time to seek medical help at the airport. Fortunately, the onboard staff on the plane helped her bandage the head wound.

Her video has become a warning for all who would like to use similar attractions. The woman also admitted that you can reach high speed on the slide, and to avoid injuries like hers, it's better to lie down and have covered shoes instead of flip-flops or sandals.

"OMG. How could this happen," and "Thank you for the warning," wrote netizens under the video. "I once saw a similar slide in a shopping mall, but I didn't want to be a dusting cloth," joked one person.
