Brit tourist, 21, fights for life after horror hotel fall in Ibiza days after another holidaymaker suffers 'broken back' | The Sun

A BRITISH tourist is fighting for his life in intensive care after a hotel fall in the Ibizan party resort of San Antonio.

The 21-year-old was stabilised at the scene before being taken to a private clinic on the island.


The alarm was raised last night around 10.20pm, and the hotel where the incident happened has not yet been identified.

It's understood the unnamed British man fell from a height of around ten feet and was taken to the Nuestra Señora del Rosario Hospital.

The circumstances of the plunge are unclear.

It is the same private clinic where another 33-year-old Brit is still in intensive care after falling on rocks on Sunday as he jumped into the sea near San Antonio.

That accident happened at Cala Salada, a cove of gravel and sand in a closed bay surrounded by pine trees just over two miles from San Antonio.

The stretch of rocks the unnamed tourist is thought to have jumped from lies between Cala Salada and a neighbouring cove called Cala Saladeta.

He is said to have suffered a cervical spine fracture which in severe cases can cause paralysis from the chest down.

Sources at the Nuestra Señora del Rosario Hospital confirmed this morning they were treating a patient who had suffered a hotel fall in San Antonio but said they had no more information at this stage.

His widow filmed him jumping more than 70 feet to his death on an islet opposite the Majorcan holiday resort of Santa Ponsa near Magaluf.

The same day a 34-year-old British tourist plunged to his death from the seventh-floor of the four-star Melia South Beach Hotel in Magaluf where he was staying.

Shocked onlookers filmed him pacing up and down at speed on a narrow ledge on the outside of his balcony before falling to his death after appearing to try to clamber down onto the balcony below.
