一名英国少女在奥兰多的梦幻家庭旅行期间，与家人在泳池浮潜时不幸身亡。尽管她水性良好，但被发现时已"漂浮在水面且失去意识"。
一个英国家庭的海外梦幻假期骤然化作悲剧——13岁的少女安娜·博蒙特（Anna Beaumont）与父亲浮潜时不幸身亡。当时这家人正在佛罗里达享受阳光之旅，并造访了以水上项目闻名的热门主题乐园探索湾（Discovery Cove），该景点以游客能与海豚等海洋生物共游而著称。
据听证会披露，悲剧发生在安娜被发现在自然风格泳池中"漂浮且失去意识"时。该泳池包含深浅水域、珊瑚礁、岩石结构和野生动物。当时安娜正与父亲彼得在巨大的泳池中浮潜，彼得暂时离开女儿去查看她弟弟的情况。约十分钟后，他开始听到救生员的哨声，这才发现安娜遇到了危险。
听证会获悉，当救生员在卡迪夫圣法甘斯区发现安娜时，她并未佩戴浮潜装备，且面罩内充满了血水。这起事件发生于2024年5月28日，安娜被从水中救起后紧急送往奥兰多阿诺德·帕尔默医院，但始终未能恢复意识。此前有报道称，一位父亲在Oasis乐队演唱会上坠亡前数小时，曾发布过三个字的悲剧性贴文。

验尸官克里·伯格表示，安娜于次日去世，医学死因判定为溺水。安娜在一天后于医院离世，验尸官克里·伯格将其死亡原因归类为溺水所致。
安娜是一名“身体健康的游泳健将”，同时也热衷于划船运动，因此我们经常在水中活动。这使得她的死亡情况更加令人困惑。验尸报告最终得出结论，“根据现有证据权衡”，无法确认安娜为何会在水中遇险。
尽管有说法称安娜于2016年7月被诊断患有儿童失神癫痫，但已三年多未发作。她去世后，亦无证据表明她在水中发生过癫痫发作。
验尸官补充道："尽管安娜仍存在轻微的癫痫发作风险，但她此前从未出现过任何症状。目前尚无证据能证实她是如何在水中的失去意识的。"
她在住院期间及尸检过程中均未被观察到癫痫发作或出现任何困难症状，且无医学证据表明存在癫痫发作活动。
去年她去世的消息传出后，当地社区纷纷前来悼念这位少女。兰达夫赛艇俱乐部主席特雷弗·温表示：“（安娜是）一名热忱的赛艇运动员，整个冬天都在刻苦训练，并且很享受最近的水上训练课程。”
她是一位可爱且才华横溢的年轻女士，我们将深深怀念她。全体青少年组和赛艇俱乐部成员向安娜的家人致以诚挚的哀悼。
拉德尔综合学校校长安德鲁·威廉姆斯表示：“失去孩子的痛苦是常人无法想象的煎熬。我谨代表全校师生向安娜的家人致以深切慰问，愿他们在这个艰难时刻得到慰藉。”
安娜是我们学校大家庭中备受爱戴的一员，她的离去将让学生、教职员工以及所有有幸认识她的人深感痛惜。她的精神、善良与存在曾感动过无数人。
A British teenager has died while snorkelling with her family in a pool during a dream trip to Orlando as she was found "floating and unresponsive"- despite being a strong swimmer
A British family abroad had the dream holiday turn to a tragedy when their teenager died while snorkelling with her dad. Anna Beaumont, 13, was on a sunshine trip to Florida when they visited the popular Discovery Cove theme park, known for its water rides and being able to swim alongside Dolphins and other sea creatures.
But tragedy struck when Anna was spotted "floating and unresponsive" in the natural-style pool that contained both shallow and deep areas, coral reefs, rocky structures and wildlife, an inquest heard. Snorkelling around the huge pool with her dad Peter, he moved away from his daughter to check on her younger brother. After around 10 minutes, he began hearing lifeguard whistles and noticed Anna was in trouble.
The inquest heard that when the lifeguards found Anna, of St Fagans, Cardiff, she didnt have her snorkelling gear, and her mask had filled with blood and water. The incident happened on May 28, 2024, and after being pulled from the water Anna was rushed to Arnold Palmer Hospital in Orlando but never regained consciousness. It comes after reports a dads tragic three-word post hours before plunging to his death at Oasis gig .

Coroner Kerrie Burge said Anna died the following day, while a medical cause of death was given as immersion in water. Anna passed away in hospital a day later, where coroner Kerrie Burge classified her death as being caused by immersion in water.
Anna was a strong swimmer with no current health concerns and was a keen rower, so we used to be in and out of the water, making the circumstances surrounding her death even more confusing. The inquest concluded that on the balance of probabilities, it could not be confirmed how Anna came to struggle in the water.
Although it was said that Anna had been diagnosed with childhood absence epilepsy in July 2016, although had not suffered from a seizure for more than three years. After her death, there was also no evidence to suggest she had a seizure in the water.
The coroner added: "Whilst a small risk of seizures remained, Anna had not experienced any. There is no evidence to confirm how Anna came to be unresponsive in the water.
"She was not seen to have a seizure or to encounter any difficulties, and there was no medical evidence of seizure activity during her time in hospital or at post-mortem examination."
After the news of her death last year, the local community came out to pay tribute to the teenager. Trevor Wing, the chair of Llandaff Rowing Club, said:
Anna was a
keen rower who had been training hard all winter and was enjoying the recent water sessions".
She was a lovely and talented young lady and will be greatly missed. All the junior section and the rowing club wish to express their heartfelt condolences to Anna's family."
Andrew Williams, headteacher of Radyr Comprehensive, said: "The very thought of losing a child is an unimaginable journey and I know I speak on behalf of the whole school community when I say that our thoughts are with Anna's family as they try to come to terms with their loss.
"Anna was a cherished member of our school family, and her absence will be profoundly felt by pupils, staff and all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her spirit, kindness and presence touched so many lives."
