How did Zac Efron get injured in a swimming pool?

Zac Efron experienced a swimming mishap in Ibiza that led to a precautionary hospital visit. His representative shared with TMZ that the actor had a minor incident at a villa on the island on August 2. Though the details of what happened in the pool remain unclear, the rep stressed the hospital visit was merely a safety measure. Efron was released from the hospital on Saturday and is reportedly doing well.

According to TMZ, Efron was found in the pool by two staff members of the villa who quickly pulled him out. The actor posted a photo on Instagram Stories on August 4, showing him lifting weights. He captioned it, “Happy and healthy. Thanks for the well wishes.” His friend Caleb Davidge also posted a selfie with Efron and both appeared fit and relaxed.

Efron has been enjoying a vacation across Europe, including stops in Mykonos and Paris, where he also attended the 2024 Olympics Opening Ceremony.

Zac Efron has previously opened up about his physical health, particularly addressing changes to his jawline that went viral on social media. Contrary to rumors of plastic surgery, Efron clarified that the alterations were due to a severe injury. In a 2022 interview with Men’s Health, he shared that he had an accident that left his chin hanging off his face. It required him to undertake extensive physical therapy. Efron explained that while filming his Netflix series, Down to Earth with Zac Efron, he had to interrupt his therapy. This led to the muscles in his face, particularly the masseters, becoming enlarged as they compensated for the injury.
