A bungee jump instructor has been found guilty of accidental homicide after a teenage Dutch girl misunderstood his “terrible English” and leapt to her death before the rope was attached was a secure point. Vera Mol, 17, was killed instantly in August 2015 after leaping off a bridge in northern Spain during an organized bungee jump. The appeal judge said the instructor's level of English was not of a sufficient standard to allow him to guide foreigners in "something as precarious as jumping into the void from an elevated point". The "misunderstanding derived from the incorrect use and pronunciation of English", the ruling said. READ ALSO: Londoner dies in bungee jump after hitting bridge
