In 2019, a British tourist broke his collarbone and several ribs when he clambered to a balcony of his Magaluf hotel and jumped to the ground below in yet another example of balconing He misses the small flimsy branches and falls straight through the tree to the ground before landing on his back and appears to writhe in pain - but he survived the incident In 2018, a 20-year-old British tourist fell to his death from the Eden Rock apartment complex in Magaluf after a night out. As with the case of the four British teenagers who were caught jumping one hotel balcony to another in Magaluf this week, authorities have turned to severe fines and kicking tourists out of their hotels.
