Tragic Rescue: Italian Twin Brothers Die Trying to Save Pigeon from Power Lines
Two 22-year-old identical twin brothers lost their lives in a tragic accident while attempting to rescue a pigeon from medium-voltage cables near Magione, Italy. Giacomo and Francesco Fierloni used a long metal pole to reach the bird perched on lines carrying around 20,000 volts. Investigators believe one brother made contact or triggered an arc and was killed instantly. His twin rushed to help and was fatally electrocuted moments later. Relatives, alerted by missed calls, found the brothers’ bodies near their family hut late that night. Emergency crews were unable to revive them. The local community, where the twins worked in their family’s plumbing business, is devastated. Friends and former teachers remember them as kind, hardworking young men. Investigations continue to clarify the exact sequence of events.
