A 40-year-old man was seriously injured after jumping and hitting the rocks in El Tancón, in Tenerife. He was taken to a hospital with lower extremity injuries.
A witness said the man was part of a large group of tourists who were jumping into the water from the rocks and filming it. The accident saw one of the men being stretchered off the beach
A holidaymaker was seriously injured after leaping into a notoriously perilous sea cave in Tenerife.
The 40 year old man, thought to be a Brit tourist, was rushed to hospital in Puerto Santiago, Tenerife, yesterday according to onlookers who witnessed the accident. Another holidaymaker who saw the incident from their nearby balcony said the man had been part of a large group diving into the water.
He reported seeing the group performing somersaults, and diving off the rocks into the open sea. They said: "They looked like they were filming it. There was a drone and a tripod set up." The group then reportedly moved over to El Tancon, a notorious sea cave known for its strong currents and past fatalities.
An emergency was declared when one of the party was injured, the witness said: "We started to hear lots of shouting, a few of the others jumped in as well, probably to help the injured one and keep him afloat until the emergency services arrived."
Despite warnings of danger in the area, he said: "There was a sign saying it's a dangerous area but young people think they're immortal." They added: "We saw what they were doing and thought it wouldn't end well."
By the time the emergency services arrived, the man's friends had already pulled him out of the water. Dramatic footage captured the moment the man, who suffered serious injuries to his lower body, was taken into the back of an ambulance.
The Emergency and Security Coordinating Center (CECOES) said: "At 2:10pm, a 40-year-old male who, at the initial moment of care, presented with various serious injuries to his lower extremities, was transferred in a sanitised ambulance from the SUC to the Hospiten Sur University Hospital."
They added: "CECOES 112 of the Government of the Canary Islands received an alert in which they reported that a foreign bather required medical assistance after hitting the rocks after falling on his feet from the puddle into the sea. 112 immediately activated the necessary emergency resources." Once crews arrived the victim's friends had already managed to get him out of the water and take him to the shore."
The statement continued: "The Tenerife Firefighters team transported the injured man to the ambulance where the health team from the health center and the SUC provided him with assistance and, once immobilized and stabilised, they were in charge of transporting him to the hospital." It added: "Local Police collaborated with emergency services."
