In 2013, 19-year-old Dino Yankov was fired from a medieval catapult at the Middle Moor Water Park in Somerset. It was supposed to be a stunt for the Oxford Stunt Factory, a group of adventurers and extreme sports pioneers. But unfortunately, the stunt turned to tragedy when Yankov missed the safety net and crashed violently into the ground. He was airlifted to the nearest hospital but his spinal injuries were too severed and he died hours after the stunt. The young man had recently moved from Plovdiv, Bulgaria to England for a higher education.
