Daredevil YouTuber 8Booth tries on trick too many as he misses hotel pool after three-storey leap
The risk-taker films himself leaping into pools from dangerous heights - but this stunt went pear-shaped
A DAREDEVIL who posts videos of dangerous jumps into hotel pools was left "destroyed" in hospital following his latest high-risk stunt.
Shocking CCTV footage shows YouTuber 8Booth's legs smash into concrete on landing after jumping from a hotel balcony at night.
He ends up in the water after smashing into the hard surface first.
This slightly misjudged leap left 8Booth unable to stand up and clearly in pain next to the pool after he pulled himself from the water.
8Booth posted the clips of his eighth ill-fated 'pool drop' from three different angles earlier today.
His previous extreme clips, often captured on Go-Pro, have seen him jumping from even greater heights after breaking into buildings.
More than 73,000 followers subscribe to his channel on YouTube featuring the heart-stopping stunts, which included jumping from a staggering height of 129 feet into the marina at Newport harbour in California.
But this time the self-proclaimed professional's luck ran out.
The latest video ends with 8Booth in a hospital bed and his legs in plaster after suffering a nasty-looking foot injury.
It is believed the stunt was filmed at the Pacific Edge Hotel in Laguna Beach, Califronia.
Many YouTube commentators wished him a speedy recovery but others did not have much sympathy.
One said: "I knew this was gonna happen some day."
Another wrote: "Congratulations, you will never walk the same again.
"Getting X-fixes on your ankles means you will never be able to run again and you'll never jump from a building again."
A third person wrote that he had been landing "too close to the edge".
Another GoPro offering shows him jumping from the fifth story balcony of a hotel in Laguna Beach, California, and leaping eight storeys into a marina – missing a concrete walkway by inches.
