A Geelong boy who survived the horrific Sea World helicopter crash has been taken off life support and is now stable in hospital.

Leon De Silva, 9, was placed in an induced coma after suffering serious injuries in the helicopter crash on the Gold Coast on Monday afternoon that killed pilot Ash Jenkinson and three passengers.

The other three passengers were seriously injured, including Leon and his mother Winnie.

Leon was taken off life support on Thursday.

“It’s a bloody miracle,” a Queensland Health spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia.

Western Sydney boy Nicholas Tadros, 10, whose mother died in the crash, remains on life support at a Gold Coast hospital.
