Balearics issue warning over 'balconing' craze - www.travelweekly.co.uk: "Hotels in Ibiza have been ordered to install safety nets after a 26-year-old Italian plunged to his death from a seventh floor balcony at a hotel in Playa den Bossa on the island.
The ‘balconing’ craze involves leaping from one hotel balcony to another or into a swimming pool. With the death toll up to six people, the Balearic Islands tourist association is to issue warnings to tourists.
An awareness campaign is to be launched in an effort to stop the continuing fatal practice that has become known as ‘balconing’ in the Balearics.
It is hoped a hard-hitting video campaign will have a similar impact to the graphic road safety adverts shown in Spain."
