Wladimir Klitschko, the former heavyweight champion said to media that he had his family were saved by the firefighters in the middle of the night as their boat caught fire while in Spain.
43 years old Wladimir Klitschko who back in 2015 lost his WBO, WBA Super and IBF title to Tyson Fury and retired shortly after being defeated by Anthony Joshua also posted a video on his official Twitter account which shows the firefighters suppressing parts of his boat that caught fire with foam.
Video also showed some of the other emergency officials at the scene. Wladimir Klitschko revealed to the public that he was traveling with his family from Ibiza to Majorca on Monday morning when suddenly the incident happened but everyone who was on board the boat is safe and unharmed.
Wladimir Klitschko can be heard in the video as he says, “Three o’clock in the morning. We are in the sea getting rescued from the Majorcan Spanish fire department. The boat was on fire. We are hanging out down outside.”
He then wrote on Instagram, “We are all fine! We were in rough water and suddenly recognized fire – about seven sea-miles from the coastline. It took a while until the situation got under control, but we could count on helping hands from the Majorcan coast guard and fire rescue. Thanks to all of them!”
The Ukrainian fighter then added on his Twitter account as follows,
“Be careful what you wish for: fate took my wish for “some #adrenalin” a bit too literally and our boat-trip Sunday night ended up in our boat #igniting and family & friends being evacuated by coast guard and fire rescue-team. No worries: we are all fine! #theroofisonfire #song.”
