From a prank gone horribly wrong to a sudden electrocution in a swimming pool, numerous freak accidents captured the nation’s attention in 2024.
Hearing about a freak accident, an incident that is very unlikely to occur again, transfixes audiences and leaves them wondering how it happened.
Here is Fox News Digital’s list of the most disastrous freak accidents in 2024.
Amanda Gallagher was taking pictures when she backed into a plane propeller in Kansas in October. Just before 3 p.m. that day, the Sedgwick County dispatch received a report about an accident at Cook Airfield in Derby, KAKE News first reported.
When deputies arrived, they located Gallagher, who had been critically injured while taking photos of people getting on and off of planes when she backed into an active airplane propeller, the outlet reported.Â
The woman was transported to a hospital in extremely critical condition, KAKE reported, where she later succumbed to her injuries.
“Amanda Gallagher was kind, adventurous, creative and beautiful inside and out. She was a loving daughter, sister, aunt and friend and will be greatly missed,” a statement on a GoFundMe page read.
