They will not retrieve the body of the girl from the collapsed sand quarry in Nizhny Tagil
July 28, 2026 A teenage girl died in Nizhny Tagil after falling into the water from the edge of the Lebyazhinsky quarry. After that, sand collapsed on top of her.
The tragedy occurred last Friday, July 24, reports "Channel 4". The Lebyazhinsky quarry is a popular recreation spot for Tagilians. In the heat, daredevils jump into the water from the cliffs. The sand has collapsed before, but not in such quantities as to raise concerns, people say.
"I think it wouldn't have collapsed — they were just jumping on it," an eyewitness told "Channel 4". As the portal v-tagile.ru reports, a group of boys saw a crack and began to "help" it along.
The 13-year-old sixth grader who died on Friday was at the edge of the quarry with a friend, and she was the first to notice that the edge of the quarry was moving. Eyewitnesses were unable to dig out the girl buried under the sand — they could not find her.
"When she surfaced and raised her head, about two tons of sand fell on her. Two boys barely managed to escape," said the friend of the deceased.
Rescuers believe that due to the risk of a new collapse, the search operations pose a danger to their own lives. The quarry is planned to be closed to visitors after the tragedy.
