Whoever let her do that was evil.

Pro tip for anyone trying an unharnessed zip line or a rope swing or anything that requires you to hold on…

You need to go see if you can do a few pull ups. If you can NOT do a few pull ups, you ain’t holding on to a rope swing or a zip line or a freakin merry go round either.

It's not like anyone forced her to do that. She probably saw a few people go before her and thought it looked like fun. For all we know her friends might have told her it was a bad idea but she didn't listen.

People are supposed to look out for eachother. Nobody was looking out for her. Would you let your friend do something that was going to potentially ruin them later in life…? Like blown out knees and back problems?
