A young dad died a horror death when he jumped from a cliff but hit a rock instead of the water below.

Daredevil Marlon Cantor was seen standing up on the edge of the precipice.

He was sitting back down as he contemplated the scary drop beneath him.

After less than a minute had passed, he stood up a second time and, without hesitation, leapt into the void.

But instead of hitting the water several metres below, he landed on a rock jutting out into the pond.

His limp body bounced off the hard surface, landed with a splash in the water, and vanished beneath the surface.

A shocked onlooker who filmed it fell into a stunned silence as several daytrippers swam over to the spot where the young man had landed.

The horror unfolded on Saturday (19 Apr) in Lamaní, south of Comayagua, Honduras, as reported by Need To Know.

Tragic Marlon was from the nearby village of El Varillal and was the father of a young daughter.

When the swimmers reached him, he was unresponsive.

It is believed he died instantly when he hit the rock head-first.

Local media say many daytrippers had been drinking alcohol as they cooled off at the beauty spot.
