Surfer Giulia Manfrini Dead At 36 After Being Speared By Swordfish

Surfer and influencer Giulia Manfrini has died at just 36 years old … after she was speared by a swordfish in Indonesia.

The tragic incident happened earlier this month at Masokut Island, a popular spot for surfers … when a swordfish jumped out of the water and struck Manfrini in her chest.

Manfrini reportedly suffered a wound 2 inches deep … and was taken to a nearby health clinic. Sadly, she did not survive.

“You left this as a lesson. Live enjoying life to the fullest and die doing what you love most. Hopefully, she didn’t suffer much. Surfing the cloud. 💔”

Manfrini had a background in professional snowboarding before she fell in love with surfing. She also worked as an instructor … and was the co-founder of AWAVE Travel.

Manfrini called herself a “surf frother” — a person passionate about surfing — and a pow (snow sports) addict.

Her death comes one month after surfer Jorge Alvarado hit his head while riding the waves at Daytona Beach Florida. He was 49.
