Omg! Gorgeous Model Drowns During a Photo Session Underwater (Photos)

 

A gorgeous model has tragically lost her life while shooting a photo session underwater. The model identified as Olivia Ku, 25, is said to have choked on sea water and was already unconscious when her body was pulled from the waters near Hengchun Township, in Taiwan’s southern Pingtung County.

 

Ku, together with representatives from her modelling agency "Eelin", had visited the popular tropical tourist site for the photo session when the incident occurred at around 3:26pm.

 

She was rushed to the hospital by firefighters and members of the local coast who attempted to resuscitate her but were unsuccessful.

 

While local authorities said further investigation was necessary to determine the exact cause of the accident, there have been suspicions of human error and improper diving practices after it was suggested the photographer asked Ku to remove her breathing apparatus for aesthetic effect, forcing the young woman - apparently an asthma sufferer - to hold her breath underwater.

 

 

The accusations have neither been confirmed nor denied by members of the local coast guard, who have handed the case over to a prosecutor assigned to survey the diving site following Ku’s death.

 

It was gathered that Ku, a native of Taiwanese capital of Taipei, was reportedly an avid amateur diver with at least three years of experience before her death.

 

Veteran divers who knew Ku said the mishap should have been avoided, as the Eelin modelling agency should have had professional divers on site during the photoshoot in case of such emergencies. She is survived by her husband and young daughter.
