A 34-year-old British dancer was one of the fatal victims of the Yeti Airlines plane crash in Nepal last year. According to the investigation, the accident occurred due to an error by the pilot, who made a mistake and pulled the wrong lever.
According to the daily MailRowan Crighton, from Essex, was a physiotherapy student living in Nepal with his French girlfriend while completing his training at a spinal injuries clinic in Kathmandu.
He has already toured Europe as a professional dancer. The dancer had already studied and worked in London, Finland and Slovakia. She studied at Brentwood Central School of Dance and later graduated from the Central School of Ballet in London in 2008.
The tragedy happened the day after his birthday.

Yeti Airlines Flight 691 was carrying 68 passengers, including 15 foreigners and four crew members. 72 people died in the country's deadliest accident since 1992.
The investigation concluded that Rowan Creighton's cause of death was blunt force injuries to the head, chest and abdomen.
The inquest into Creighton's death was attended by his parents and siblings who, according to daily Mail, They hugged when the verdict was read.
