Alexa Terrazas (23) from San Pedro in Mexico went in for an 11-hour surgery having suffered fractures to both legs and arms, hips, and head after attempting an upside-down yoga pose on the balcony of her sixth-floor apartment.

According to The New York Post, the health and nutrition student was reportedly posing for a photo when she slipped and fall onto the pavement outside her apartment.

Her roommate posted the picture on Twitter which has since gone viral. Doctors had to “reconstruct” her legs, and it may be three years before she walks again.

Wising her a speedy recovery!
