TOURISTS have been warned about a dangerous 'naked balconing' trend plaguing a holiday hotspot after a shock video emerged. The hair-raising clip shows a boozy reveller stripping down to his birthday suit before he's seen clambering around on a roof in Cala Ratjada, Spain . His reckless antics are known as 'balconing' - a term given to the practice of trying to climb over balconies to reach another room or jump into a pool.
The stunt is fast becoming a fashionable trend - with holidaymakers filming it on their phones before sharing the content on social media. Local residents have shared concerns that although balconing may seem like harmless fun it has previously cause serious injuries and even death. In the recent footage music blares as the naked man swings his leg over a safety railing and climbs off his balcony.
Pals cheer and encourage him while passersby watch on in horror . The man was reportedly part of group of young German nationals who were all under the influence of alcohol. Residents have been urging for stricter measures and increased supervision to prevent the irresponsible behaviour.
