A video from Swift's Friday concert, captured by a fan, is making rounds on the internet. It displays Swift gasping for breath. Web users have reacted with comments like "This sight breaks my heart" and "I can't watch this".

A Taylor Swift concert in Rio de Janeiro on Friday evening ended in tragedy. A 23-year-old fan named Ana Clara Benevides fainted in the crowd after waiting hours to enter the Nilton Santos Stadium. Rescue workers were able to extract her and shuttle her to a hospital, but sadly, she passed away a few hours later.

Taylor Swift is deeply mortified and impacted by this situation. She shared her heartache over social media, expressing her sadness and offering condolences to the loved ones of the deceased fan.

The next Swift concert was scheduled for Saturday, but the decision was made to postpone it due to unforeseen circumstances. The rescheduling was broadcast just two hours before Swift was set to perform, causing riots in the streets of Rio.

Perturbing video from Taylor Swift's concert unnerves fans

Simultaneously, a fan's video recorded during Friday's concert has captured attention online. It displays Taylor Swift also experiencing issues due to the circumstances at the stadium. The footage reveals the star having difficulty breathing just after performing her song "Bejeweled". The clip has attracted a large amount of comments from internet users.

"This sight breaks my heart. It's so sad; I can't watch this. When I saw it, I was genuinely frightened; I hope there's nothing wrong with her." These are the sentiments that Swift's distraught fans echoed in their comments.

Currently, Brazil is suffering through a grueling heatwave, and on the day of Taylor's performance, the temperature soared to almost 104°F. Some reports contend that despite these severe weather conditions, the event's security team allegedly prohibited attendees from bringing in water. Brazil's Jus tice Minister Flavio Dino has ordered an investigation into the matter.
