Vanessa Mariposa may have been seriously injured during training for “RTL high diving”. A breast implant could have ruptured.
After Thorsten Legat (54) was seriously injured in training for the first “RTL high diving” in 2022, Vanessa Mariposa (30) had to cancel her participation shortly before the broadcast this year. “There is still a suspicion that my breast implant has ruptured,” explained the fitness model as part of the format “The Real Life – #NoFilter” (on RTL +). Therefore, Mariposa will not be able to compete on Friday.
In an excerpt, the 30-year-old reports on numerous other training injuries: “Here are bruises and bruises everywhere, my pelvic bone is bruised, my lip is cracked, my teeth hurt […].”
Also on Instagram (caution: blood can be seen. ) Mariposa wrote about training and her injuries a week ago. There are “insights into my world, which is not as perfect and simple as many think”. The training is going “much worse than expected. […] I really give 150 percent and yet it just doesn’t work.” It pulls you down mentally “of course if you just don’t make progress.” But Mariposa wrote that she didn’t want to give up.
Training accident reminds Thorsten Legat
Mariposa’s end is reminiscent of Thorsten Legat. The former professional footballer injured himself during training in the summer of 2022 and was unable to take part in the show. A few weeks later he had that a testicle had to be removed due to the injuries he had sustained.
The “RTL high diving” will run on February 10th at 8:15 p.m. The broadcaster has already found a replacement for Mariposa. A few days ago, RTL announced that jungle camp runner-up Gigi Birofio (23) would take part. There are also Birofio’s TV jungle colleague Jolina Mennen (30), Olympic champion Fabian Hambüchen (35), “Let’s Dance” winner René Casselly (26) as well as Lucy Diakovska (46) and Nadja Benaissa (40) from the No Angels. The program is moderated by Jan Köppen (39), Laura Wontorra (33) and Frank Buschmann (58).
