The Only Way Is Essex star Yazmin Oukhellou has recalled snapping her own arm in order to to free herself after horror 70ft cliff plunge car crash that killed her boyfriend Jake McLean. Jazmin, 28, had spontaneously flown to Turkey to reconcile with her on-off boyfriend and "things were perfect" before the accident happened.

She had nodded off in the car after partying with friends in Bodrum and woke to find the Mercedes plunging off a cliff. Jazmin told the Sun: “We were just tumbling for what seemed like forever. It felt like I was going round in a washing machine, just round and round.

“Then eventually it stopped and my right arm was jammed. The car was upside down. It had an open sunroof and my right arm was just stuck behind my back and under the folded back of the car roof."

The reality star revealed she had severed an artery in her arm during the crash. Through 'adrenaline and panic' she managed to snap her arm so that she could go and reach help.

She said: “I could just felt my arm absolutely covered in blood. It was like I was lying in a hot bath, there was so much around me. At the same time I was trying to wake up Jake. I didn’t want to admit it to myself that he could be dead.

“So I thought ‘right, I can either lay still and bleed to death, or snap my own arm to try to save us, I had no choice. So I somehow snapped my arm through pure adrenaline and panic.

"I climbed out of the car, and I was kind of holding my arm together with my left hand. I ran up to the top of the bank, I was screaming for help and then all of a sudden I saw a flashlight.”
