AN Irish tourist who "belly-flopped" into a Fraser Island waterhole and was rendered a partial quadriplegic will receive substantial damages from the State Government because it failed to adequately warn of the dangers.
In a decision in Rockhampton this week, Supreme Court Justice Duncan McMeekin ruled Evan Joseph Kelly, 22, would receive 85 per cent of any damages awarded against the Queensland Government after a three-day hearing in March.
Mr Kelly, an apprentice electrician from Kiljames in Ireland, suffered a C6 body fracture with spinal cord damage when he ran down a sand dune, tripped and fell into the water at Lake Wabby on September 27, 2007.
The hearing was told signage and warnings at Lake Wabby had not been upgraded despite some 18 people suffering serious injuries at the site between 1990 and 2007.
