BBC ski presenter Chemmy Alcott is taken to hospital after suffering a collapsed lung, according to reports. She is said to be struggling to breathe following an incident involving a jump into Lake Annecy.
The articles describe the injury as occurring during what one outlet characterises as a “badly timed front flip.” Both accounts link her medical emergency directly to the jump and do not provide additional detail on treatment or the cause beyond the reported mistimed manoeuvre. No further information is included in the provided sources about her condition after admission or whether investigators or event officials comment on the circumstances.
Overall, the reporting is consistent on the main facts: Alcott has a collapsed lung, is experiencing breathing difficulties, and is rushed to hospital after a front-flip attempt during an activity at Lake Annecy.
