balconing

A thrill game played by mostly drunken tourists to jump off balconies into hotel swimming pools. Balconing has been made popular by YouTube and other social networks, with daredevil jumps into swimming pools or from balcony to balcony being filmed with the videos published on the internet.

The game also includes other dares such as clambering from one balcony to another or playing other drunken games without taking into account the danger of falling.

A number of deaths and several serious injuries have been reported from the balconing falls.
