It was meant to be a quiet moment of calm. Instead, it became her final one.
Twenty-four-year-old Kamilla Belyatskaya, a young aspiring actress from Russia, laid out her pink yoga mat on the rocks of Koh Samui, Thailand. The sky was bright, the sea beautiful — and she had just written online, “I’m very happy. I’m happy!” Moments later, a powerful wave crashed against the rocks and pulled her into the ocean.

Witnesses say she struggled to stay afloat as her boyfriend and bystanders screamed for help. A man jumped in to save her, but the current was too strong. When rescuers arrived, only her yoga mat remained — drifting quietly across the waves.
Kamilla had called Koh Samui “the best place on Earth.” Locals say tourists often underestimate the danger during monsoon season, when the ocean turns unpredictable and fierce. “She may have been caught off guard by the wave surge,” one rescuer said.
Days later, her body was found less than a mile away — a haunting reminder of how quickly beauty can turn to tragedy. And somewhere, on those same rocks, the sea still whispers her final words: “I’m happy.”
