The publication quickly had repercussions and provoked a flood of comments. While some internet users reported that this type of play was common in the past, many expressed concern about the risks involved, especially as children were exposed to an environment considered extremely dangerous.
In the comments, users recalled that every year there are records of people disappearing in the waters of the Acre River, especially during the flood period, when the volume increases and visibility is reduced by the mud. There was also mention of a recent case that occurred this year, reinforcing the warning about the dangers of the river in these conditions.
The scene rekindles the need for greater vigilance and awareness, especially in times of flood, when the river stops being just a postcard and starts to represent a real risk to life.
