Helicopter to hospital
Boy seriously injured after jumping in amusement park
An adventure in an amusement park ended fatally for an eight-year-old boy on vacation in the Tyrolean lowlands: the child suffered such serious injuries during a jump that he had to be flown to hospital by emergency helicopter.
The devastating incident occurred early on Friday afternoon in Alpbach in the district of Kufstein. According to the police, the eight-year-old boy from the Netherlands was visiting the amusement park with his parents.
Accident at the diving platform
"The pupil jumped several times from a 'base jump tower' from a height of three meters onto the air-filled mats below," according to the investigators. Shortly before 12.30 p.m., the boy jumped again - and this time the jump ended fatally.
When he jumped again, the child landed so awkwardly on the mat that he suffered a serious leg injury.
