Vera Mol was just 17-years-old when she jumped to her death during a horrifying bungee accident.
It’s believed the Dutch student misheard her instructor, thinking he had said “now jump” instead of “no jump”, The Mirror reports.
This week, a court heard that Vera had jumped from the bridge too early, and although she was attached to a rope, it was not yet secured to the bridge.
The instructor – who has not been named – appeared in a Spanish court this week, and is accused of causing the teenager’s tragic death.
