31-Year-Old Liam Payne Dead: Fell from Hotel Balcony, Suspected to Be Under the Influence of Alcohol or Drugs
Sources reveal that Liam Payne and his girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, arrived in Argentina on September 30, sharing several posts of their vacation on social media.
While Cassidy left Argentina on October 14, Payne stayed behind and checked into the CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires.
Tragedy struck shortly after, as Liam Payne died following a fall from the third-floor balcony of his hotel.
Authorities responded after receiving a 911 call from hotel staff reporting an “aggressive” male guest.
Witnesses in the hotel lobby described Payne’s erratic behavior, and it was suspected he was under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
A staff member expressed concern, saying, “We have a guest who’s off his head on drugs and is destroying everything in his room,” and feared he might harm himself due to the presence of a balcony.
Despite attempts to get urgent assistance, Payne tragically fell moments later.
Payne was found in the hotel’s internal courtyard, having suffered fatal injuries from the fall, estimated to be from 13 to 40 meters.
Emergency responders arrived at 5:11 p.m., but by the time they reached Payne, he had already succumbed to the severe injuries, described as “incompatible with life.”
Alberto Crescenti, head of the local emergency medical services, confirmed there was no possibility of resuscitation.
Local police have opened an investigation, and an autopsy is underway to determine the precise cause of death.
This tragic event has shocked fans and the public, especially given Payne’s significant presence as a former member of One Direction.
Toronto, Canada – A newly surfaced video provides a clear and chilling view of the moment Delta Flight 4819 crash-landed and overturned at Toronto Pearson International Airport on February 17, 2025.
The footage, filmed from the flight deck of an aircraft awaiting takeoff, captures the terrifying incident in real time.
The video shows the Delta Airlines CRJ900 regional jet, operated by Endeavor Air, approaching the runway for landing after arriving from Minneapolis (MSP).
Initially, the aircraft appears to be executing a routine landing. However, upon touching down, it suddenly overturns, flipping onto its roof and coming to a rest inverted on the snow-covered tarmac.
Moments later, flight attendants and emergency crews swiftly initiated evacuation procedures, assisting the 80 passengers and crew members on board.
18 people sustained injuries, with three individuals— including a child— listed in critical condition.The Transportation Safety Board of Canada (TSB) has launched an in-depth investigation into the crash, citing severe weather conditions at the time, which included strong winds and blowing snow, as a possible contributing factor.
Officials are analyzing the newly released video, which provides critical insights into the sequence of events, helping investigators determine the exact cause of the accident.
Following the incident, Toronto Pearson International Airport temporarily suspended all arrivals and departures as emergency crews responded.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) confirmed a ground stop was issued in the immediate aftermath of the crash.
Authorities continue to assess the circumstances surrounding the accident, and further updates are expected as the investigation progresses.
