A “FEARLESS” 15-year-old boy fell to his death from a two-storey wall as he tried to jump across a gap, an inquest found.

Jordan Jamieson-Castleton, from Brighton, fell from the wall of a car-park at Brighton Marina on March 28 while on the way to the beach with friends.

He died more than two weeks later from his injuries.

The Longhill High School student was taken to St George’s Hospital in south London with serious head and leg injuries and was in a coma until his death on April 14.

A friend who was with him when he fell gave evidence which was read out at the inquest at Brighton Coroner’s Court at Woodvale.

He said: “We were on level three of the car park. I can’t remember the conversation before that.

“Jordan jumped across the barrier and his hand bounced off.

“The next thing I saw he fell.

“I ran down to help. He was on the ground groaning and then a man came to help and I called the ambulance.

“He was fearless and adventurous.

“He wasn’t into doing freerunning but was always doing tricks.

“He seemed himself before and hadn’t taken any drugs or alcohol. He was my best friend.”

Another of Jordan’s friends, who arranged to meet him on the day he fell, said: “I was walking to meet Jordan and the others.

“I spoke to him on the phone about 15 minutes before he fell. During the call he seemed fine.

“After the incident I spoke to my friend [who phoned 999] and he told me that they were looking for a shortcut to the beach and thought they could jump the gap.”

An air ambulance was called to the scene to take Jordan to London where he was admitted to St George’s Paediatric Intensive Care Unit.

Senior coroner for Brighton and Hove, Veronica Hamilton-Deeley, concluded that Jordan’s death was accidental.

She gave the cause of death as a catastrophic traumatic brain injury after falling from a height.

She said: “Jordan died as a result of an accident.

“It gives me huge sorrow to have to offer you my condolences for the loss of such an extraordinary young man.”

While Jordan was still in a coma his family set up a crowdfunding appeal in a bid to raise £1,000 to help them afford the travel costs to visit him at his hospital bedside in London.

A spokesman for Longhill High School said everyone was deeply saddened by the tragic loss.
