59 year old James Berryman from Guernsey has died in a hang-gliding accident in Spain. He was undergoing a course at a hang-gliding school in Algondonales in Cádiz and was fatally injured when practicing last Wednesday near Teba in Málaga province. He suffered severe head injuries after falling 150m on to a rocky hillside. He was rushed by helicopter to the Clinico Hospital in Málaga, and then by Ambulance to the Carlos Haya hospital, but he died of his injuries on Friday. It’s understood the school is approved by the British Hang Gliding and Paragliding Association and they say they will be carrying out an investigation as James was one of their members.
