Zac Efron, a famous actor, had a small accident while swimming in Ibiza, Spain. He hit the bottom of the pool and swallowed a lot of water. He was taken to the hospital as a safety measure.
Efron, who is 36 years old, was at a villa with his friends at the time. He was swimming in the early morning before the accident happened. Two people, who were working at the villa, noticed he was in trouble and helped him out of the pool.
At the hospital, doctors took an x-ray. They found out that Efron no longer had water in his lungs. Efron was ready to leave the hospital only a few hours after he got there, but he decided to stay a bit longer due to paparazzi.
The next day, Efron told his fans on Instagram that he was feeling good. He posted a picture of himself working out without a shirt. At the same day, he appeared in a selfie taken by his friend Caleb Davidge. Davidge, who was on vacation with Efron, also confirmed his friend was doing fine.
Later that night, Efron had dinner in Ibiza before flying back to America the next day.
