quote:

A father vacationing with his family in Spain leaped to his death in a cliff-jumping stunt gone wrong, shocking video shows.

The harrowing footage captured from a nearby boat — where the man’s wife and son were filming — shows the 31-year-old Dutch tourist readying to make the 100-foot plunge Thursday in the Malgrats Islands.

The ill-fated daredevil took the plunge off the majestic cliff, but seemingly realized his leap wasn’t going to clear the sharp, jagged rocks below that he viciously clipped before crashing into the water while letting out a terrifying scream.

“Oh my God!” the man’s wife shouted as the short, chilling clip ends.

The body of the man, who wasn’t immediately identified, was reportedly found in the water following a search. It’s unclear if local authorities are investigating the deadly cliff-jumping stunt, which is popular among vacationers throughout Majorca.

How awful that his wife and son had to witness it. I can't imagine.

I'd recommend watching that video without the sound on.

The gains did not out weigh the consequences.

I can't believe they just sat there and filmed it instead of trying to keep him from jumping. How callous.

I jumped off a bridge about 20 foot above the water one time not realizing the boat I was in was going under it. Missed it to the right by about four feet. Would have fricked myself up tremendously.

He had at least 1 kid. His genes are still in Darwin’s game.

You can still die if you jump from that height and miss the rocks, if you don't hit the water the right way.

My brother broke his neck and had to be airlifted to a hospital doing that same stupid shite. He was lucky to survive.
