Tyler Sabapathy, an 18-year-old gymnast and student at Temple University, died as a result of injuries sustained during celebrations in the city of Philadelphia after the Eagles defeated the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship Game last Sunday.
Per Sharrie Williams of ABC 6 in Philadelphia, Sabapathy was celebrating by climbing a light pole on Market St. and 15th St. when he lost his footing and appeared to hit his head on the concrete sidewalk.
Emergency medical personnel transported Sabapathy to Jefferson Hospital with a brain injury, and he was pronounced dead on Tuesday.
