Frightening moment Magaluf 'sexual predator' makes terrifying move after spotting 'drunk' woman

A chilling incident in Magaluf has emerged where a potential sexual predator and his mates were caught on camera as they eyed a "drunk" woman who appeared to be passed out on a lounger. The woman was actually undercover journalist Ellie Flynn from Channel 4, pretending to be inebriated.

As the group approaches, one of the men is heard saying "let's go for it" after alerting his friends that she's "wasted". In a deeply unsettling moment, another asks if she wants to "kiss a little bit", calling her his "last chance". Their identities are kept hidden with blurred faces and altered voices.

This disturbing event is featured in the network's latest documentary, "Magaluf Undercover: Predators and Parties," which shows Ellie and her team secretly filming around nightclubs, streets, and beaches while posing intoxicated and underage to document predatory behaviour in the notorious party destination.

Reflecting on the ordeal, Ellie said: "The arrival of the third male ­startled and genuinely scared me. I had seen the first two together, but the sudden appearance of another - and having no idea at the time if they were together - was enough for me to signal security to get me out.

"I leave the beach upset and frightened, feeling like I've experienced an orchestrated attempt to target drunk women alone on a night out in Magaluf. Shockingly, this was not an ­isolated incident, but a pattern that emerged across my three nights in the resort town."

Ellie's horrifying experience occurred on her third night out in the popular tourist destination. On the first night of filming, she managed to capture several men on camera observing her for ten minutes as she feigned being heavily intoxicated outside a takeaway, reports the Mirror.

When she departed, one of them signalled to his friend and trailed her, asking if she was alright and informing her that he had a car during their eerie conversation, where Ellie was seen slurring and swaying. As part of the programme, an independent survey revealed deeply unsettling levels of predatory behaviour and sexual abuse, particularly towards women, on party holidays.

Nearly a quarter of the 500 men and women surveyed reported experiencing sexual assault. Almost 1 in 10 women disclosed incidents of non-consensual sex acts, such as rape.

One in five men (17.72%) admitted to touching a stranger inappropriately without their consent. Over 30% (31.22%) of the men confessed to kissing someone without their consent during a holiday night out.

Almost a quarter (24.89%) of men believed that someone dancing or standing alone indicated they were seeking a sexual partner. About 33% of the women stated they had been followed while on holiday.

In 2023, there were 48 reported rapes to the police in the Magaluf area.

Ellie revealed harrowing details about her investigative work on a party destination notorious for its dark side, saying: "I go undercover in Magaluf - a party destination blighted by reports of sexual assault and rape - to expose the predatory underbelly of the tourist hotspot. We secretly film in clubs, on the strip and at the adjoining beach, after dark, with me and another member of the team pretending to be drunk or underage."

She added a grim insight on her personal experience, "Filmed across just three nights, I am followed, harassed, touched and targeted by men, who often appear to be working together in groups."
