Sonny Wells And His Mum On The Dangers Of Tombstoning

August 2, 2011

The practice of tombstoning – jumping off high cliffs or piers into the sea unsupervised, is causing concern.

The rescue services say a least 14 people have died as a result of it in the last five years.

There are concerns many people are still ignoring warnings about the risks.

Mark Bell from the RNLI in Brighton explained to the BBC’s Graham Satchell what they are doing to try and stop peope tombstoning.

The video starts with Sonny Wells and his mum talking about his accident and the dangers of tombstoning. Sonny has featured on Same Difference before. I’m pleased to see that he is still trying to raise awareness of the dangers of the activity that caused his accident and changed his life.
