Chongqing Dianjiang fifty-year-old man died in a fitness accident with a "hanging neck".
On May 15, 2024, a tragedy occurred in the Fuhua New Town Community of Chengxi Town, Dianjiang County, Chongqing. A 57-year-old man died unexpectedly while using gym equipment for a "hanging neck" exercise. This incident has attracted widespread attention from the society, and it has once again reminded people that while pursuing health, they must pay attention to the safety of fitness methods.
According to Director Li, the relevant person in charge of the town government, the man used an irregular exercise method when exercising, that is, hanging his neck on a rope to shake. Previously, community workers had repeatedly dissuaded him from performing such dangerous maneuvers, but unfortunately, he chose this high-risk way anyway. On the day of the incident, he was accidentally suspended by a rope due to improper operation, which led to the tragedy.
The staff of the Chengxi Police Station said that after investigation, the fitness rope used by the man was not carried by himself, but hung on the fitness equipment in the community for a long time. Thus, the possibility of a criminal case is excluded. The person in charge of the relevant department of Dianjiang County also confirmed to reporters that this was an accidental death, and the man was accidentally hung by a rope while exercising, resulting in an accidental death.
In recent years, the "hanging neck" fitness method for the elderly has become popular on the Internet, but experts remind that although this exercise method adopts the clinical traction principle, it is actually not advisable. Because the maximum weight that a person's cervical spine can bear is limited, if it is operated blindly, it may damage the nerves and spinal cord, and in severe cases, it may even lead to high paraplegia.
Regarding this incident, the Chengxi Town Government said that it would attach great importance to it, and docked with the community where it was located, and made warning signs for warning publicity. They hope that in this way, the majority of residents must pay attention to safety when exercising, avoid blindly following the trend, and choose those fitness equipment and methods that have been scientifically proven and have high safety.
This incident once again reminds us that while pursuing health, we must pay attention to the safety of fitness methods. Don't blindly follow the trend, but choose a fitness method that suits you according to your physical condition and health condition. At the same time, the community and relevant departments should also strengthen management and publicity to improve residents' safety awareness and avoid the recurrence of similar tragedies.
