A man has died and his two beautiful female friends are fighting for their lives after their drunk pal dragged them behind his jeep as they rode a large inner tube for fun.
The tragic incident took place on a forest road in the town of Negresti-Oas in the Romanian county of Satu Mare last week.
A group of four friends, named as Sergiu, 35, Alexandru, 27, Daniela and Patricia, ages not disclosed, decided to take an adrenaline-fuelled adventure in the snow for fun and drove to a nearby forest.
According to the news site Observator, Alexandru was operating the vehicle and had been drinking when the other three mounted a large inflated inner tube and allowed him to take them for a spin along the snowy forest road.
However, he reportedly lost control of the vehicle on the icy, unmade road and was unable to keep in a straight line.
He turned the steering wheel sharply and his three friends on the tube were sent flying into trees before being thrown into a ravine, according to Observator.
Sergiu was killed on the spot, while Daniela is in a critical condition in hospital. Patricia broke both her legs and has severe bruising, according to reports.
Oros Alexandru, manager at the Dr Constantin Opris County Hospital, said Daniela is in a four-score coma, adding that they are waiting on a miracle.
Alexandru, who only suffered minor injuries in the incident, arrived at the hospital and reportedly tested over the limit for alcohol by officers on the scene.
The police have opened a case for culpable homicide and causing bodily injury as the investigation continues.
