A British holidaymaker has been caught out after trying to make his Magaluf hotel pick up the cost of his medical bill for stupidly jumping from a balcony.
The tourist was filmed leaping into a tree and smashing onto the ground below after it failed to support his weight.
Majorcan daily newspaper Diario de Mallorca - which published the astonishing video - said he broke his collarbone and several ribs and claimed he had suffered an accident in the swimming pool in a fraudulent bid to get his hotel to pay his £33,000 hospital bill.
