An accident occurred at a famous waterfall attraction in Australia's Northern Territory. A British man jumped from a height of 30 meters into Deep Tan, resulting in multiple fractures in his legs.
On Saturday, 25-year-old British man Jones (Josh Jones) and 11 companions travelled to (Jim Jam Falls), (Kakuda National Park) Jim Jam Falls, Kakuta National Park in the Northern Territory, according to Radio 7.
After 10 bottles of beer, Jones climbed to the top of the cliff beside the waterfall and leaped down. The onlookers, unaware of the serious consequences of Jones's move, cheered on the shore.
Jones's jump caused fractures of the tibia, fibula, ligaments of both legs, and multiple bruises on the face. Jones said he immediately felt a broken leg, but the pain was not obvious because of adrenaline.
Several of Jones's companions sensed something different and worked together to bring Jones back to shore. Coincidentally, four visitors to the waterfall that day were doctors and rushed to help.
More than 20 people at the scene formed a rescue team, using a temporary stretcher to carry Jones back to the parking lot for four hours. Jones took the bus back to the camp and waited 90 minutes for an ambulance to arrive. Jones was then taken to a nearby clinic and sent back to Royal Darwin (Royal Darwin Hospital) for treatment by an ambulance helicopter.
Jones is now waiting for the operation to be arranged.
As a mechanic, Jones said he was most concerned about the impact of his injuries on his application for a job visa.
