A model in Taiwan drowned during an underwater photoshoot and while
the exact cause has yet to be determined, there have been suspicions of human
error.
Olivia Ku, 25, a
native of Taipei, was a popular model and amateur diver with at least three
years of experience, Central European News (CEN) reported. She drowned after
reportedly suffering an asthma attack while underwater.
The photoshoot took
place in the waters near Hengchun Township, in Taiwan’s southern Pingtung
County.
According to CEN, it has been suggested that the photographer
asked Ku to remove her breathing apparatus, making her hold her breath
underwater. These allegations have not been confirmed or denied by the local
coast guard. Ku’s modeling agency should have secured professional divers on
set for the photoshoot, veteran divers told CEN.
In the past, the mother-of-one volunteered to dive in the waters
to help pick up trash from the seabed, CEN reported.
