Dramatic footage of a woman being thrown from a ring while going down a water slide at speed at Center Parcs Woburn Forest in the UK from the Newsflare archive.

The video, captured by the brother of the unfortunate woman in 2015 during a family holiday, shows her flying off the side into the wall of the tunnel at Centre Parcs in Bedford.

As the others reach the bottom on the ring she can be seen landing separately before being immobilised on a spinal board by lifeguards and taken to hospital.

The filmer wrote online: "My family and I were in Woburn Centre Parcs last week catching up with the rest of my family. We had been doing lots of activities over the various days, and a common one was going on the slides at the swimming pool.

"We had gone down this specific ride many times before. I was recording on my GoPro Hero 4 because it was new and funny to see people's reaction as we went down this ride.

"My sister fell off the ride due to not holding on tight enough. She slipped backwards off the inflatable because of the impacts of the rushing water."

He added that she was "only bruised" after being X-rayed and that the family "very impressed" with the lifeguards.
