Horrifying video shows crowds watching as a 15-year-old girl fell from a rooftop after she was d£capit@ted by a power line while dancing and taking selfies with friends in Guatemala.
Débora Rebeca Xi Artola, 15, was seen on the roof in La Tinta last Thursday, August 1, with three friends, one of whom was snapping pictures.

Other footage filmed from down below shows horrified onlookers rushing toward the building as the girl’s b0dy initially rested on the cable, surrounded by smoke.
Helpless, they watched as her h£@d snapped off, sending her falling around 20 feet to the pavement below.
Débora Rebeca’s heartbroken mother, Andrea Xi, shared a tribute to her daughter on Facebook that included a portrait of the beaming girl during her quinceañera in March.
“I love you forever. My princess,” one of the posts read.
“My first and great love,” the other added.
