Traumatic brain injury suspected in three British deaths at Vietnam waterfall   The bodies of the three victims are seen being transported to Lam Dong Hospital in Lam Dong, Vietnam, February 26, 2016. Tuoi Tre Head injuries might have killed three Britons in an adventure game tragedy that occurred in a popular resort town in central Vietnam earlier this week, police found after an autopsy, ruling out water asphyxia as the cause. Three British tourists visiting the Datanla waterfall in Da Lat, a famous romantic city in the Central Highlands province of Lam Dong, died when engaging in an adventure game downstream on Friday. Nguyen Thi Nguyen, director of Lam Dong’s Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, said on Saturday that no official reports had been made by police officers on the cause of the accident. The victims have been identified as Chistian T. S., Beth G. A. and Isoben M., all British, Lam Dong police said on Saturday. Beth G. A. had her face injured, whereas Isoben M.’s face was severely bruised and her right leg and arm were broken, according to an initial autopsy’s results. Chistian T. S. also had a deep cut on his forehead. Findings from the autopsy have pointed out traumatic brain injury following an impact with rocks as the cause of the deaths. The three slid into a dangerous whirlpool in the stream at the upper part of the Datanla waterfall around noon on Friday, according to thetour guide who took them there. The company that operates the Datanla tourist area said the deceased had not bought the tickets for the adventure activities, so they were not given the proper safety equipment. Further investigation is underway.   UK Ambassador to Vietnam Giles Lever crosses a stream to approach the site of the accident in Lam Dong, Vietnam, February 27, 2016.
