Olivia Robinson only remembers being in hospital, where doctors told her police had brought her in after plunging three storeys out of a window
A British lifeguard is lucky to be alive after plummeting out of a three-storey window on a dream trip to America - but with no memory how it happened.
Olivia Robinson, 20, shattered her pelvis, right thighbone, and wrist and damaged her bladder due to the fall.
She had travelled to Honolulu in Hawaii in May 2026 to go solo travelling before heading to Connecticut, US, to work as a lifeguard.
The 20-year-old met up with some friends on July 4 and, after spending time together, headed back to her Airbnb and went to bed.
The next thing Ms Robinson remembers is being in hospital where doctors told her police had brought her in after plunging three storeys out of a window.
Now awaiting surgery on her pelvis and thighbone femur, Ms Robinson's sister Megan Davis has set up a GoFundMe to help cover the costs of her parents flying out to be with her.
Ms Davis, from Preston, Lancashire, said: "I just can't actually believe she's alive with the breaks that she's had, it's just a miracle she's still alive.
"She's in such a severe condition on her own, you just feel helpless."
She added: "We have had little FaceTime calls with her but she's just completely out of it, she has no memory whatsoever of anything, it's just so sad watching her.
"She's in and out of consciousness but she's been in extreme pain, it's traumatising watching her.
"She's got nobody and my mum just desperately wants to get out there."
An investigation has been launched to discover what happened.
Ms Robinson's brother Kieran said: "She initially went travelling around America, then she got a job as a lifeguard. She's an avid swimmer, she's the sportiest person you could ever come across, she's done triathlons - sport is her life.
"She's had a day off, been to see some friends, staying in an Airbnb, then the last thing she remembers is saying she's going to bed. The hospital contacted my mum on Sunday and then my mum rang me to say she's had an accident but we didn't know the full extent.
"My dad then rang me and he gave as much as he knew of the circumstances surrounding her falling.
"For a 20-year-old to find herself in that position I couldn't be prouder of how she's handled it because she must have been absolutely terrified."
Ms Davis is fundraising so her parents can fly over to be at Ms Robinson's bedside.
"I just wish I had a pot of cash I could just give to my mum and dad because that's really the main barrier - the international travel and the accommodation and the expenses.
"You just feel totally powerless because it goes against all your instincts as a sister to not actually be able to be there and to sit with her. She's in a right mess and I just want to be there. I've been in a right emotional mess."
