Two British tourists were enjoying a sunny day out on a boat in Majorca when suddenly, tragedy struck. The boat they were on suddenly exploded, throwing the couple into the water and causing serious injuries. The man, 44 years old, and the woman, 30 years old, were rushed to the hospital with second-degree burns. The explosion occurred at the Port of Palma, and it was reported that the couple was working on the engine of a Zodiac-type boat when the blast occurred.
The couple suffered severe burns on their face and arms, as well as other injuries on their bodies. The explosion also caused another nearby vessel to catch fire, adding to the chaos of the situation. Witnesses captured footage of thick, black smoke billowing into the air, visible from miles away. The incident happened around noon, and emergency responders, including police, firefighters, and paramedics, quickly arrived at the scene after receiving multiple emergency calls.
Despite the swift response, the fire was not able to be contained, and both boats ended up sinking. The hospital where the injured British tourists were taken has not been named, but it is believed to be a private clinic. In a separate incident on the same day, a man was thrown overboard during a boat race in the Isle of Wight when two yachts collided.
The details of the boat explosion in Majorca are still under investigation, and authorities are working to determine the cause of the blast. It is a tragic reminder that even the most enjoyable activities can quickly turn dangerous. Our thoughts and prayers are with the injured couple, and we hope for their speedy recovery.
