Tragically, on a fateful day in July 2023, Lucidi was climbing the Tregunter Tower complex in Hong Kong when disaster struck. The 68-story building was his chosen stage for another adrenaline-pumping spectacle. However, something went terribly wrong during this daring escapade.
According to reports by the South China Morning Post, Lucidi was seen at the building around 6 pm, informing the security guard that he was visiting a friend on the 40th floor. However, an hour and a half later, at 7:38 pm, he was spotted alive, tapping on the window of the top-floor penthouse. A startled maid inside promptly alerted the authorities, fearing for the daredevil's safety.
It is believed that Lucidi got trapped outside the penthouse and began frantically knocking on the window, seeking help. Tragically, he lost his footing in the process, plunging to his death. His camera, found at the scene, contained videos of his breathtaking high-rise stunts, confirming the nature of his risky endeavors.
The Hong Kong police are conducting a thorough investigation into the incident, but no suicide note was found, pointing to a potential accidental fall. The police later received a call about a gas leak, only to discover Lucidi's lifeless body outside the building, his fall having broken a gas pipe.
Lucidi's passion for exploring tall structures and heights was evident throughout his life. He had amassed a significant following on social media under the moniker "Remi Enigma" by sharing mesmerizing photographs from his adventures around the world.
As friends, family, and followers mourn his loss, the French consulate has been notified, and authorities are cooperating with the investigation. Lucidi's impact on the world of extreme sports and the hearts of his supporters cannot be understated. His tragic accident serves as a stark reminder of the inherent dangers involved in pursuing such daring pursuits.
The owner of the hostel where he was staying in Hong Kong recalled his cheerful and adventurous personality, saying that Lucidi had plans to hike a mountain during his stay.
Over the years, Lucidi had climbed numerous high-rise buildings across the globe, including in Portugal, Bulgaria, Colombia, France, Dubai, and Poland. His appetite for challenges led him to attempt a wide variety of stunts, each more audacious than the last.
Just days before his demise, Lucidi shared a selfie on his Instagram page, showing him hanging from a ladder on the side of a building in Gabrovro, Bulgaria, further showcasing his fearlessness and thrill-seeking nature.
