Barbecue tragedy in Ankara: Man dies after catching fire
A tragic event occurred in Turkey. Two men were lighting a barbecue in such an unfortunate manner that one of them caught fire. Although the flames were extinguished quite quickly, the residents of Ankara could not be saved.
The gathering in the Elmadağ district of Ankara ended tragically. A group of friends wanted to start a barbecue and spend a pleasant evening together. The meeting ended in a huge drama.
Two party participants were lighting the barbecue in such an unfortunate manner that one suddenly caught fire. The recording shows the party's participants pouring petrol on the glowing charcoal. This most likely caused a fire outbreak.
He caught fire at the barbecue. He died of a heart attack
The man's clothes quickly caught fire, and he ran terrified around the property. First, the upper parts of the victim's outfit began to burn, and then his trousers also caught fire.
Companions at the party immediately rushed to help. They quickly removed the victim's clothes and extinguished the flames. However, Turkish media reported that the man's life could not be saved.
According to the "En Son Haber" service, the Ankara resident (known for his involvement in local business organisations) was still conscious immediately after the incident.
Only a few minutes after the fire, the victim had a heart attack due to panic. Doctors fought for his life in the hospital, but they could not save him.
A recording of the tragic incident appeared on social media after it was published by the Turkish news agency Ihlas (IHA). Journalists from the agency received it from the police to warn about the consequences of irresponsible handling of fire.
