A man went missing after he jumped into a waterfall and was swept away by the strong water currents in Maharashtra.

Swapnil Dhawde, who was with a group of 32 other people from his gym, had visited Plus Valley in Tamhini Ghat, for an outing on Saturday.

The monsoon outing turned tragic when Swapnil jumped into the waterfall from a height but was caught in the strong water currents.

A video shows Swapnil jumping into the waterfall, then clinging on to a support in the middle of a raging waterfall. He was then swept away by the gushing waters, despite his attempts to swim.

Dhawde remains missing, despite immediate search efforts.
