A British teenage girl is in intensive care with severe injuries after a paraglider landed on her during the last lunch of her holiday.
Lyndsey Logan was on holiday in Turkey with her two daughters when the accident took place.
On the last day of their trip, they decided to go out for lunch before flying back to Newcastle that evening.
However, as they ate at their table, a man who was paragliding landed on Ms Logan’s 15-year-old daughter Lily.
The mother said her daughter was left with a broken jaw, broken ribs, bleeding on the brain and a possible broken back, as well as suffering a stroke.
However, Ms Logan had not taken out travel insurance ahead of the holiday and said she now faces a medical bill worth thousands, if not tens of thousands of pounds, to cover Lily’s care.
Speaking to The Sun, Ms Logan said she thought Lily had died during the incident.

Describing what happened, she told the outlet: “We were meant to fly home at 7.30pm, so we went down for our last lunch together, having nice English food.
“I just remember Lily just eating, biting into a slice of pizza and this paraglider just came from nowhere and just totally wiped her out over the table.
“She face-planted the table and we tried to get her up… I thought she was dead.”
