This is probably not how a holiday in Tyrol should be.

A German tourist was seriously injured in Kappl, Austria.

Before that he wanted to climb into his room.

Kappl - Two German tourists caused a stir in the Tyrolean Kappl.

First they cheated their taxi driver for the fare, then he fell a good five meters deep while climbing through a window of his pension: One of the two German tourists to Austria suffered a serious head injury on Saturday night.

The man from the Saar-Palatinate district and his 22-year-old companion from Saarbrücken wanted to get to their accommodation via a "robber's ladder" after they had forgotten the key, the Tyrol state police said.

The upper of the two lost his balance when being heaved up and fell onto the terrace below.

He came to a hospital.

The two had previously argued with the taxi driver who had brought them from Ischgl to Kappl.

The 24-year-old is said to have torn the taximeter from the anchor before the two disappeared without paying.

According to initial findings, they were very drunk.
