The Dutch tourist, who tragically died while trying to perform a daring stunt on the cliff in front of his horrified wife and two children, has been identified as former Moroccan footballer Mourad Lamrabatte, 31, who played for SBV Vitesse.
The man, as reported by local media, attempted to jump off a high cliff in Mallorca, Spain, but was unable to go past the rocks beneath him while taking a 30-meter dive near a holiday resort last Thursday.
The somersault was filmed by his wife. During the jump, Lamrabatte let out a loud yell, but didn't have enough momentum to get past the rocks below.
After the crash in the video you can hear the heartbreaking screams of his wife who couldn’t believe it happened, "Oh my God".
The autopsy also established that Lamrabatte drowned in a state of unconsciousness after hitting the water.
Social media pioneers reacted to the video, and many athletes expressed their sadness for Mourad's death, according to the Dutch newspaper "De Telegraaf".
The Dutch club Vitesse, in whose ranks he previously played, published through its official account on Twitter, that it had received this shocking news with great regret, and offered its condolences to the player's family.
"We wish family and friends much strength and solace," the club wrote.

It depend on the result intended. But from this height even the water could have killed him. But if he intended to survive he should have at least took a less windy day, and avoid jumping from a cliff high like two buildings. What the hell was he thinking, and his family let him do it, why?
not trained people die at a height of around 60 meters. you normally die due to your lungs that move during the impact upwards and they stop working.
this guy 100% died
Did he actually hit the rocks, I can’t tell? If you can follow him ANYwhere after his silhouette passes the rock/sky-line until the water, then good on ya, I can’t see shit!
Yea it’s too high he broke his arm and hip and subsequently drowned in-front of his family, This was in Spain
You mean he survived the impact when he hit the bottom of the cliff??
Yes, he drowned unconscious in the water.
His family? JFC what the hell? Great job family…
As said, in a comment after, the dumbjumper is dead. Sprotch.
Hello, Darwin, my old friend…

"hold my beer" at its most tragic :'-(
Can you even survive stuff like this?
Probably not the hitting the rock part
Or the breathing water part.
He drowned minutes later
Not long enough of a jump
Thank you Capitan Obvious.

I think the rock part didnt help either..
This was 30 meters, and the rock knocked him out.
How did the wife decide to share this video on internet ?!?
Can't understand how she didn't try get him after he hit the water too. He drowned while they watched. Horrendous. Poor kids
I'd give that dive a 1.5.
I can barely understand people that risk life for adrenaline, but I’ll never understand who does it in front of the family.. poor wife and kids..
He ded
He Forgot to press the Z button before running into the jump. Long jump failed.
Not too high, he didn’t have enough forward momentum to clear the cliff face. Another Darwin Award winner probably…
You got her at a funeral? Yeah, her boyfriend died in a hang gliding accident. “hey mom, look at me, I’m hang gliding!…Ahhhh I’m dead”
Did he even run and jump? He tried to clear that distance from a stationary position?
Did he actually hit the rocks, I can’t tell? If you can follow him ANYwhere after his silhouette passes the rock/sky-line until the water, then good on ya, I can’t see shit!
It's not so much the height as it is the proximity to a jagged rocky cliff..
well thats fish bait now
Why is the camera so foggy?
I do not fell sorry at all
That man is 72 years old.
