British kite surfer was left fighting for his life after he became trapped in a sea of poisonous jellyfish.

Crispin Freeman 'blew up like a balloon' when he was stung for more than 40 minutes after he crash-landed in the middle of a 3km (two-mile) swarm.

Strong currents eventually swept the 42-year-old clear of the fish and he was taken to a clinic for an emergency antihistamine injection which saved his life.

'I thought I was going to die,' said Mr Freeman, who spends half the year in the central American country with his family running a property business.

He added: 'I panicked initially but after a while I couldn't feel anything at all.
