Tourist left 4 inches shorter after breaking her back on 'Banzai' Mallorca waterslide

A British tourist who says she was left four inches shorter after smashing her back on a "Banzai" water slide while on holiday in Spain is fighting for £500,000 compensation.

Jennifer Proctor, broke her spine at the end of her "nightmare" holiday in 2019, suffering catastrophic injuries during her descent of the extreme 40-foot high slide at the Aqualand waterpark, in Mallorca.

She had to undergo an emergency spinal fusion in Spain to treat her injuries, and says the damage left her 5ft 7ins tall, four inches shorter than her 5' 11" height before the accident.
