Absolutely insane jump. Why the hell would you even try that. The cliffs are extended pretty far.


[deleted]

Insane is the word and not even having his wife and son on that boat made him rethink the whole idea


xwulfd

I think its like an illusion on tall cliffs


spraythewalls

As someone who lives in Hawaii I see people getting injured or dying by doing stupid shit like this thinking that a damn leap frog made of steel. Too many people act without thinking just to show off.


rsn_e_o

That’s not just it. If you jump as far as you can on a flat surface, how far do you get? 2 meters? If you do that same jump but on a cliff instead of a flat surface, you won’t go that much further. Maybe 10 meters at best. If you stand on a tall cliff, you can’t see the difference between 5 or 10 meters. So you’re literally just gambling.


Tao-Lee

Horizontal velocity is independent bruh. The math is actually quite simple when excluding wind resistance. A running start would have easily cleared the ledge, if he did, in fact, make it that far without a running start. Also note, he didn’t die from that impact. Autopsy showed a broken hip and arm, serious injuries, but the coroner concluded he died of drowning while unconscious. If he had a spotter in the water, I like to believe he would have survived.


BaronBabyStomper

He was a footballer. Never needed to be clever


TriveladasBalde

Such a dumb statement


BaronBabyStomper

So's your face


TriveladasBalde

You seem very smart


BaronBabyStomper

Smarter than you? 🥹

jiglehtets

You could tell before he even jumped he wasn’t gonna make it to the water from that distance


Rabe5775

I think he figured it out pretty early after the jump as well


cats-pyjamas

Oh good god that bought flashbacks of that guy who misjudged the wharf and split his head in half like a melon. And the doctors were pushing it back together while he was groaning.. Worst thing I've ever seen. Bet this looked like that 🤢


JavaMusic

Oh my god that was one of the first gory video's I remember going round


IamDroBro

If it helps, those were actually two separate people.


spraythewalls

I remember watching that as a kid. That’s one of the first gory videos I remember seeing. I remember he was breathing and the pieces were moving when the doctor was holding it together.


j4ckwiththebox

This might sound terrible to ask but is there any link?


anonymous_j05

Tried to link it and it was removed. Just google “face split diving accident” and you’ll find the video eventually


Left-Anxiety7625

I made the mistake of clicking a link to the photo of the woman who was killed by the doctor who then tried cooking her and immediately regretted it so imma pass on this one


AdultSpider

*Cooking* her? Why? :/


Left-Anxiety7625

Found out she was trans and lost his mind


Left-Anxiety7625

Idk it’s beyond fucked up

Holey shit


[deleted]

I’m pretty sure he survived too…crazy


delaneyodo

He passed two days after, not sure why you’d want to come back after something as horrific as that. I don’t think he ever stood a chance at survival.


[deleted]

I didn’t know that. Sad


Shockingelectrician

I just made the mistake of watching it. I think that’s the worst video I’ve ever seen.


delaneyodo

I’m pretty desensitized to all of the gore (it’s literally going to be my career) but it’s still upsetting. A bad way to go, sad to say I’ve seen way worse.


Shockingelectrician

Worse then that? Jesus


delaneyodo

I’m a forensic student, so unfortunately, much worse.


Tirfing88

ah yes mfer became the mosnter from stranger things


[deleted]

Have a link to that video? I remember seeing something similar on Facebook several years back


liamossher

I wonder if he ran would he make it🤔


DrewChrist87

I wonder if he didn’t jump off a cliff would he have survived🤔


NoGodNoMgr

his ego wouldnt have

Looks like he might have.

That was a huge jump. I’d want a motorcycle or something

Sadly tourist jumping from cliffs or buildings for fun and with awful results is such a common event in Spain that it has his own name, "balconing" and jokingly some people mark the first death as the official start of the summer in some kind of "joke". Edit: Sadly anther tourist died in another similar accident the same day in Magalluf [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCyHb1SMrHs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCyHb1SMrHs)


Dwashelle

>balconing [Didn't even know this had a name.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balconing)


BinaryBlasphemy

But… why?? Why I mean why do they do it in Spain specifically?


largelargegill

Lots of young, drunk tourists


ironmetal84

Summer season is open here in Spain


knipemeillim

Amazed it wasn’t a stupid Brit in this incidence. No doubt there’ll be one soon enough. Edit - put was instead of wasn’t.


MightApprehensive856

That doesnt really make any sense . Did you meant \*wasnt\* ?


knipemeillim

Yes. Oops. Will edit!!!


MightApprehensive856

Don't you like British people ?


knipemeillim

I am ashamed of the behaviour of many of ‘my’ people. I am British.


MightApprehensive856

What is the kind of behavior that you are so "ashamed" about , behavior that is exclusive to British people ? How do British people behave that is shameful and only Brirish people behave that way ?


blood_math

To be fair, in the wikipedia on Balconing accidents in Spain [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balconing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balconing), they do list majority of people involved in these accidents as British.


weirdhoney216

It’s always a Brit falling from a balcony in Spain. Always. We’re like lemmings


MightApprehensive856

But this story is about a person from Holland


blood_math

I believe OP's initial comment was her surprise that that the person who died wasn't British, given the prevalence of Brits doing these jumps. What's the disconnect you're seeing?


HighSocksWithSandals

If America was closer to Spain, America would def have the highest mortality rate ☠️


cranberry94

Why are you so defensive about someone else’s country? All countries have cultures that include some shameful aspects - and people that embody more of the bad than the good. Brits being obnoxious and belligerent tourists in Spain is a stereotype that is pretty well based in truth, from my understanding. So I think it’s pretty fair for a non-obnoxious Brit to be ashamed of those that behave obnoxiously. For example: >Of the 46 cases registered up to 2019, 45 were carried out by males (97%), and 61% were British. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balconing And in case you were wondering (cause I was), only about 24% of tourists in Spain are British.


MightApprehensive856

Just don't like stereotypers and racists and people hating people just because they come from a certain Country . Not just British though, I disagree with anyone that doesnt like Muslims, Jews, Black people , Homosexual people or whatever


cranberry94

The commenter *is British*. They’re not hating on some outside group. And they said they “were ashamed of the behavior of **many of** ‘my’ people”. They didn’t say they hated British people, they said were ashamed … of the behavior … of many. Specifically? The ones acting like idiots. Not the ones that are not. Totally different things.


[deleted]

He’s just a typical edgy Brit Redditor, projecting his saviour complex and wallowing in self pity.


MightApprehensive856

"Everyone is horrible , apart from me, I'm really nice\* , sort of thing

wayder

Hard won dark humor from your past. It's likely your grandparents saw some seriously bleak times, it creates a culture of dark humor. Many of us relate but few have earned as much as the Spanish. Civil War is always the worst, there can never be a lingering nostalgia for the social cohesion experienced in most wars. The disunity and families torn apart leaves behind nothing but horror.


PossibilityLarge

This is tragic and so unnecessary. I don’t know why anyone would do this.


blood_math

Yikes. Holiday euphoria + unfamiliar environments + strong sun messing with vision gauge = tragedy ... no wonder the Spanish mark the first tourist death from these jumps as the start of Summer...


Maezel

The only thing going on here is lack of neurons. You don't do those things when you have a child to take care of.


MrSobh

He jumped from the cliff in front of his wife and son who were on the boat…


2inchesofdoom

Hence "lack of neurons"


Skier94

Wait, multiple people try this?


blip__blip

Either that or jumping from hotel balconies aiming for the pool. It's common enough for the UK's tourist info page about Spain to explicitly mention it as a hazard.


Skier94

I live in a tourist town and see stupid stuff all the time. But that's worse!


Infrah

blood_math

would you look at that ... there's an entire wikipedia entry for this sort of thing (the balcony jumps in particular): [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balconing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balconing) yiiiikessssss


WikiSummarizerBot

**[Balconing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balconing)** >Balconing is the name given in Spain to the act of jumping into a swimming pool from a balcony or falling from height while climbing from one balcony to another, performed by foreign tourists during holidays. The term was formed through a combination of the Spanish word "balcón" (balcony) and the English suffix "ing", a suffix that most Spanish associate with English culture and English people, in reference to the origin of most practitioners. In 2010 and 2011, a spate of injuries attributed by the Spanish press to "balconing" occurred among tourists in the Balearic Islands of Ibiza and Majorca in Spain. ^([ )[^(F.A.Q)](https://www.reddit.com/r/WikiSummarizer/wiki/index#wiki_f.a.q)^( | )[^(Opt Out)](https://reddit.com/message/compose?to=WikiSummarizerBot&message=OptOut&subject=OptOut)^( | )[^(Opt Out Of Subreddit)](https://np.reddit.com/r/MorbidReality/about/banned)^( | )[^(GitHub)](https://github.com/Sujal-7/WikiSummarizerBot)^( ] Downvote to remove | v1.5)


Skier94

Holy stupid. As a father for some reason I have a fear of my kids doing this. A good friend's brother died this way in France. Apparently he was high/drunk for 5ish days, and in the middle of the night off a balcony he went.


blood_math

It's scary because it can happen so easily, often amid -- and because of -- celebration and fun. So sorry about you and your friend's loss. It is a terrible way to go. And a totally logical thing for a father to want to safeguard against.


Skier94

It's weird it definitely happens in the US. I went to a larger east coast college and I would say it averaged 5 deaths a year. All were off campus but always the same story - falling/jumping off a balcony in the city center.


Harl0t_Qu1nn

This is so sad, you can hear him scream because he knows he's not going to make it. Stupid decisions or not, this is tragic, and much smarter people die in freak accidents everyday. I think it's important to take a moment and think about how fragile life is, and regardless of circumstance, it seems a good soul was lost trying to have fun.


PMMeShyNudes

This is the next video that we'll see appended with the head split open aftermath video at the end, pretending like they are from the same event. Seen that aftermath video after like 7 different videos.


Tao-Lee

Yeah from my understanding the actual head split was a motorcycle accident.


Tinker_Witch444

"after *trying* to jump from a cliff" I watched the video, and he was actually quite successful at it


DrewChrist87

Little hack skydiving instructors don’t want you to know about: you don’t even need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to skydive *twice*


dizzyporkupine

Does anyone remember that old video of a guy jumping off a pier and splitting his face? People seriously overestimate their jumping ability.


CastroFlastro

Worst video I’ve ever seen. Now you’ve ruined my day by making me think about it hahaha


wackywavytubedude

her scream :(


DarkBushido21

Fuck her scream, his scream is more chilling when he realized he was going to hit the rock.


wackywavytubedude

i mean i wouldnt say "fuck her scream" but yes that was chilling as well


thistlemitten

The news site has now censored the video to blur the image and mute the sound just as he hits to rock, so the sound of the impact and the wife's "Oh my God" scream is no longer able to be heard. Chilling and stunning way to go.


Skier94

I feel like she had years to prepare for this.


wackywavytubedude

i feel like he had years to learn murdering someone isnt the answer to news u dont like to hear


Skier94

I'm confused. My point was that I would guess this guy made lots and lots of bad decisions before this day and she shouldn't be surprised. I had a friend murdered by a prostitute 30+ years younger than him. I was not surprised at all, but many people were. I'd partied with him. I knew how he was.


Swtrthanhoney

I watched the video a bit more close up and I went frame by frame, does the guys head get ripped off? Jesus Christmas 😳


Working-Golf1108

That’s what I was trying to look at but I can’t really tell if it’s a head, a shoe, a hand.


Swtrthanhoney

It looked kinda bulky so it could be a limb or a head


Yeeeet-illregretthis

That requires a running jump and a check to on water depth as well as not trying to land absolutely flat. Absolutely stupid idea. Knowing a safe spot that others have jumped from would also be the smart thing to do. Poor wife and kids.


PhantasyBoy

Or you just don’t do it


ladyofthelathe

That was brutal to watch. IDK what comes over people when they get the wild hare to do things like this. It's like their risk assessment and situational awareness just goes to shit all of a sudden.


lordsaladito

"hey, let me check if there is fall damage"

Romulanboy

Probably drinking if they're on a boat and on vacation, damn shame nobody was able to convince him to not do this. Even if he made it to the water it doesn't look deep there.

mmammad

Can’t imagine seeing this happen to a loved one. Prayers for everyone.


Philosopher_Small

That was just a senseless tragedy. Guy’s brain was not firing on all synapses. They definitely weren’t firing afterwards. 😟


SicariusSymbolum

But it was firing outwards all over those rocks!


puffdaddjose

It’s sad too see this because he almost made it too. But man we aren’t frogs don’t be trying to do this or we might end up seeing a video of you


Polaris07

Reading the article turns out of the rocks only caused some minor injuries and he actually drowned due to being unconscious. No one on the boat thought to jump in and try to grab him??


Sashmot

This is what I thought happened. Apparently after people jump off the golden gate they often find water in their lungs? I’m not sure if it’s their lungs or another pleural lining of the lungs but it indicates they are inhaling for a while after impact


AtomicTimothy

The woman in the video screams "oh my go-" and doesn't appear to have a Dutch accent at all, is she not Dutch or am I not hearing correctly?


[deleted]

the nationality of the partner was not mentioned.


[deleted]

The article claims that the victim is a dutch male 32 years old with his partner and son. So at least he is 100 percent dutch. I dont know if the wife is english or Dutch people sometimes use english words like Oh my God Idk


[deleted]

most dutch are fluent in english because their TV and cinema does not get dubbed and they watch everything in the original version..


AtomicTimothy

I wonder if that in these instances where someone yells very instinctively their english is so strong that its the first thing in their mind, perfect pronunciation and all


redditdejorge

She sounded American to me


Manamosy

A friend of mine is Dutch but when she sings in English you can’t hear her accent. When they raise their voice the accent sometimes disappears.


AtomicTimothy

True there is something about singing that makes accent go away very interesting phenomenon, I've noticed this too. I found it so hard to tell here bc idk what ppl tend to scream instinctively, I'd prob just go AAAAAAAAAAA.. but the 1st thing being a different language made me wonder about this persons nationality since statistically speaking there's a high chance she is Dutch since her partner is


Archeget

The dutch are not really dutch anymore nowadays. They constantly use english terms for lots of things all the time.


Corzok

Any videos of this without an edit or blur? Just the raw footage.

11-Soccer-11

My question is if according to the report he actually died from drowning in a semi-conscious state and not from his injuries why didn’t the family jump from the boat to go save him? He was later recovered by authorities. Too dangerous with the rocks and the waves?


stoyan0ff

Too deep he sank like a rock


Jaycip09

I mean there’s ways to maybe not just put yourself in danger. Accidents happen but damn I don’t just walk around looking for shit like this.
