Young girl dies after fall from nine-storey human tower


I'd never heard of castellers before this.
The huge, fragile-looking human towers built by groups from eastern Spain known as castellers were at the centre of controversy at the weekend after a 12 year-old-girl died falling off one.
Mariona Galindo died of head injuries after falling from a nine-storey human tower at her home town of Mataro north-east Spain. She had been climbing to the higher levels of the human towers for the past two years.
