Ancestors of the Year: In Brazil, parents let their child jump into a pile of limestone for a spectacular photo (3 photos)
The photo turned out, but the boy is no more. 
What will you not do for the sake of interesting content for social media! Parents of a 7-year-old child let the boy jump up the mountain limestone. The heap was emptied on the side of the road in Ipiranga (Parana, Brazil). Boy Arthur asked permission to jump into it, parents nodded and took a spectacular photo. As it turned out later, this picture became last in a child's life. 
The kid inhaled limestone dust and quickly felt feel bad. In the hospital where the boy was brought, he died. The doctors said that death was due to contact with powdered limestone. He contains silicon dioxide (silica) and these hazardous particles crystalline silica, if inhaled, can lead to serious breathing problems. 
Despite the fact that limestone is widely used by farmers to enrich the soil and increase productivity, you need to work with it very carefully. Silica particles are smaller than a grain of sand, and getting into the body humans, they can cause silicosis and even cause carcinogenic pathologies. That is why in construction and agriculture with work with this type of material use protective respirators and masks.
The police launched an investigation into this incident, although all are inclined to believe that the death of a child was a coincidence, because the boy's parents had no idea how dangerous limestone was powder. In their latest social media post, they warned others mothers and fathers that their children may also be in danger and urged to be vigilant.
