Mihaela Rădulescu reacted immediately after the official cause of death was established.
“I was sure that Felix had not had a disease. He was manic for medical checks and had no heart problems. The office of the prosecutor’s office, to whom I thank for cooperation, returned to us immediately after the autopsy, and Felix could finally be brought home to Austria.
Had an extraordinary life. For 12 years, I was with him at all his adventures: acrobatics shows, helicopter flights, paramotor flights, parachute jumps and paragliding. We were inseparable, but his passion separated us, though he will always stay with me.
Felix was really special, in many ways, and now I just want to continue to continue to tell his extraordinary story. I will have to go over shock, pain, over the mornings where I have to make only a coffee, not two. That will break my heart every day ”said Mihaela Rădulescu, quoted by the Italian press.
The 56-year-old Austrian athlete was on a vacation with his girlfriend, Mihaela Rădulescu, when the incident was produced. He fell and crashed into a wooden structure, near a swimming pool of a tourist complex.
