This young traveller has died after slipping and falling at a waterfall beauty spot in Argentina.

Yago Pablo Minervino, 30, was a PE teacher who lived in Parque Patricios, an area located on the southern side of Buenos Aires, Argentina.

He travelled to the Iguazu waterfalls, in the northern Argentina province of Misiones where he decided to visit the Salto Mariposa waterfall, in Hito Tres Fronteras, in Puerto Iguazu, in Misiones province.

But he slipped and ended up plunging 25 metres down the cliff face of the waterfall.

According to local media, he suffered multiple traumas with fractures in his skull, hip, arms and legs.

Volunteer firefighters came to his rescue and took him via boat to a nearby hospital.

According to local media, the man regained consciousness but later fainted and died two days later.

Minervino had experience backpacking and had already travelled for two years through South America with his bike.

The place where the young man fell is the same spot where a traveller fell to his death in 2019.

Meanwhile, in February this year, Vanesa Soas, 35, also fell at the same spot but managed to recover from her injuries.

Local media reported that in the area, there are no warning messages or security measures to guarantee the security of the visitors.
