Zac Efron is a certified water baby and is often seen posting about his vacation with pictures of him swimming and playing with his children. He was recently vacationing at a villa in the Spanish city of Ibiza, known as the ‘party capital of the world’ — but it didn’t end well for him.
It was reported that the ‘A Family Affair‘ actor was found in the pool by the two workers there, who pulled him out of the water. He was immediately rushed to the hospital. Here’s what happened.
Zac Efron Drowned While Swimming In Water During His Vacation
Actor Zac Efron spent a night at the hospital in Spain after an unspecified accident in the swimming pool. The ‘High School Musical’ actor has been reported to be doing well now. The incident happened while the star was on a five-day vacation with Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky.
As reported by TMZ on Friday evening, the 36-year-old actor was “found inside the swimming pool by two people working at the villa who pulled him out of the water.” He was released the next morning from the hospital where he was admitted for treatment.
According to Efron’s representative, it was a “minor swimming incident,” and no further details were given. The rep also mentioned that the actor was taken to the hospital as a “precautionary measure,” but no reason for it was stated.

The Pool Incident Comes A Decade After Another One Of Zac Efron’s Health Crisis
Zac Efron has been in the spotlight outside of his film business for a while now. The Emmy-winning actor was first spotted on the St-Tropez boat with Gerard Butler and at the Paris Olympics opening ceremony. Before his Spain trip, he was partying on a Greek island in Mykonos. The night before the swimming accident, he was also seen onstage with Martin Garrix at Ushuaïa Ibiza Hotel and Beach Club.
The pool incident occurred a decade after another major health crisis he faced when he smacked his face on a granite fountain while running with socks in his house. Zack shared this during an interview and was unconscious due to the impact and his jaw “was hanging off his face.”
The result of the accident led to many changes in his face over the years. Many people also compared his face to his past self as he was a teenage heartthrob back then. But the actor said, “If I valued what other people thought of me to the extent that they may think I do, I definitely wouldn’t be able to do this work.”
