Spain: A 29-year old man has died in a failed attempt to base jump at Cemex España’s former integrated plant at San Vicente del Raspeig near Alicante. The deceased wanted to film a nocturnal descent from a 50m tower at the site for his social media channel, according to the El País newspaper. However, his parachute failed to open during the incident. In June 2018 Cemex was denied permission to demolish the San Vicente del Raspeig plant.
