Jesús Vázquez and his husband, Roberto Cortés, have received a hard blow after the worst news was confirmed

The host Jesús Vázquez has experienced one of the most painful moments of his life after the tragic loss of his great childhood friend, the mountaineer Carlos Suárez. The sad news has shocked Roberto Cortés and his husband Jesús Vázquez, who hasn't hesitated to share his grief through his social media for his followers. "We lost a great one," he wrote with deep sadness, after confessing that: "We were like brothers."

During the recording, Suárez performed a jump from a hot air balloon, but his parachute didn't open. Neither did the emergency one, which should have deployed automatically.

The accident occurred at 9:15 a.m. this Tuesday in the area of the aerodrome of La Villa de Don Fadrique, in Toledo. After the rest of the participants landed, the security teams noticed Suárez's absence.

Shortly after, he was found lifeless. Agents of the Civil Guard, firefighters from the Villacañas station, and a mobile ICU went to the scene, but nothing could be done to save his life.

Suárez's loss leaves an irreparable void in his heart and in that of his partner, who also knew the young man, although Roberto Cortés has preferred to remain silent.
