A freak accident
Every now and then, someone gets a really raw
deal. Like Isadora Duncan for example, who some
have dubbed the ‘Mother of Modern Dance’.
This talented young woman died in a freak accident
in Nice, France, in 1926. She was known to wear
long, flowing scarves that would often be seen
fluttering behind her in the wind, but this time, the
fluttering became fatal.
That day, her friend picked her up in his open-
roofed car, and as they speed off, her scarf
became lodged in the open spoke wheel of the
vehicle, and wrapped itself around the axle.
Isadora was yanked from her seat, and dragged
for several meters behind the car before the
driver realized what had happened. She died
instantly from a broken neck.
thats scrarify.
