Ayres Sasaki is a Brazilian amateur singer, but because of his beautiful singing voice and good musical expression, he has won the love of many fans. It is a pity that his life will always be fixed at the age of 35. .
Ayers, who was of Japanese descent, passed away on the 13th of this month. At that time, he was performing on the stage of the "Solar Hotel" in Salinnopolis, Pará, Brazil, but unexpectedly there was a shocking incident. A scary yet incredible scene.
According to reports, during a break in the performance, a soaked fan walked onto the stage and hugged Ayers. "Ayers' contact with the fan caused nearby cables to vibrate, which in turn resulted in a fatal electric shock." After that, Ayers was determined to have died at the scene.
Although several days have passed, the specific condition of the fan has not been announced. The outside world does not know whether he was injured. More importantly, it is unknown why he was soaked that day. It is said that the performance that day was held indoors and it was not raining outside.
Salinopolis police have launched an investigation, but nothing has been released yet. The person in charge of the "Solar Hotel" also said that they are cooperating with the authorities' investigation. "We fully support the Sasaki family... We reiterate that we will fully cooperate with the authorities to properly clarify the truth of the incident," they wrote in a statement posted on their social media accounts.
Ayers’ family members did not comment much. Only his aunt Rita Matos told local media: “What we know is that his performance was originally scheduled to be held at a specific time, but it was moved forward. We are contacting people who were with him at the time to find out what happened and we will collect all information and release a statement to the media."
Ayers was singing while playing an electric guitar, which means he was on stage. A live line must exist. For this reason, some people believe that this may be the fault of the electrician and that there may be open AC on the stage floor.
Some people also speculated that one of Ayers and the fan must have bare feet, or his feet were still wet. "Usually good rubber soles can prevent overcharging, but if you provide a better ground path for electricity, it will kill you."
In fact, it is not the first time that an electric guitar has caused the death of a singer from overcharging. . About 50 years ago, Keith Relf, the lead singer and harmonica player of the British rock band Yardbirds, was electrocuted while playing an ungrounded electric guitar in his basement. He was only 33 years old. The difference is that the cause of Keith's death is clear, while Ayres's is a bit more complicated.
Ayers's death plunged his wife Mariana into grief. The two had only been married for 11 months.
It is reported that although Ayers is well-known in the local music circle, his main job is as an architect and urban planner.
Friend and singer Adriano Freitas told local media: "Aside from music, we are friends in daily life. (He is) a super charismatic guy and his talent is incredible. . He is the best singer and guitarist in Belen. He is also a great friend, very family oriented and values friendship and those who appreciate his work."
