He is said to have suffered head, chest and back injuries with multiple broken ribs, according to hospital sources.

The horror incident took place early Sunday morning and the victim has since been transferred out the intensive care unit.

He is believed to be receiving treatment at a private hospital called Nuestra Senora del Rosario Clinic.

Civil Guard officers on the island have launched an investigation.

More tourists are expected to flock to the island as it prepares for the start of the season.

Some clubs in Ibiza, including Ushuaia, have already opened their doors this weekend ahead of huge tourist influx.

On a different Spanish island, a tourist from Britain was seen plunging from a cliff and crashing into rocks below in a botched stunt.

The man was stretchered away from the scene “seriously injured” after miscalculating his jump and landing feet-first on the rocks.

Meanwhile, another Brit tourist had to have his fingers re-attached in life-saving surgery after being mauled by a 10ft shark off a Caribbean beach.

The Brit tourist suffered extensive damage to his left arm and leg, puncture wounds to the abdomen and injuries to his right hand.

A horrified onlooker who witnessed the shark attack on the 64-year-old has revealed a shocking new detail about the “freak accident”.

This comes just hours after fourteen people have been killed and 31 others injured in a tragic bus crash in Mexico.

The bus overturned on the El Capulin-Chalma highway on the outskirts of the capital on Sunday.

The passengers on the bus were travelling from Guanajuato to the sanctuary of Chalma for religious reasons, according to local media.

Another bus accident has left a British tourist dead after the unnamed woman was run over by the vehicle on the holiday island of Lanzarote.

The 83-year-old was rushed to the hospital in critical condition in the popular resort of Costa Teguise but sadly passed away shortly after.
