A 25-year-old man died after falling from a height in Aatapi Wonderland in Waghodia on Monday afternoon.

Jitendra Solanki, a resident of Nimeta village, died on the spot as he suffered severe injuries on his head. The Waghodia police have registered a case of accidental death and begun investigations.

According to the police, the incident occurred at 1:30pm when Solanki was carrying out maintenance work on the zipline. While working, his safety belt came off and Solanki fell from a height of 80 foot. He was taken to a private hospital but the doctors declared him dead.
