A powerful storm accompanied by wind speeds exceeding 90 km/h caused a large replica of the Statue of Liberty to collapse in the city of Guaíba, Brazil. The incident, which was captured on video and quickly went viral on social media, occurred outside a Havan retail store, where the statue was installed as part of a tall decorative structure. The footage clearly shows the statue bending under intense wind pressure before breaking free from its base and crashing to the ground.
Following the incident, confusion spread among many people who believed that the original Statue of Liberty, located on Liberty Island in New York, USA, had been damaged. However, officials and media reports clarified that the fallen structure was not the original monument, but merely a replica installed for commercial purposes.
According to authorities, no injuries or loss of life were reported in the incident. As a safety measure, the area was immediately sealed off, and efforts are underway in coordination with the company to remove the fallen debris and investigate the cause of the collapse.
It is important to clearly state that the original Statue of Liberty remains completely safe and continues to stand on Liberty Island in New York Harbor, where it has been located since 1886 as a global symbol of freedom and democracy.
