A 26-YEAR-old man remains in a critical condition in hospital this morning after he jumped from the roof of a Wembley apartment block to a tree in the early hours of yesterday.

Police say the City Beach man was among a group of six people who climbed to the roof of the apartment building near the corner of Cambridge and Selby Streets to watch the sun rise over the city about 5.30am Sunday morning.

"He has jumped from the roof to the tree in an attempt to scale down the tree," police spokesman Det-Sgt Carl Casilli said yesterday.

"Unfortunately he has missed the tree and landed on the ground."

The incident bears a tragic similarity to the death of Port Adelaide footballer John McCarthy, in Las Vegas in September.

McCarthy had gone to the top of the Flamingo Hotel and then jumped out onto a palm tree, in an apparent attempt to get to the ground.    

A police spokeswoman said today the man's injuries consisted of "quite bad" spinal injuries.

This morning, the man's condition in Royal Perth Hospital was listed as critical but stable.

The man was rushed to nearby Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital yesterday in a critical but stable condition and was then transferred to Royal Perth Hospital.
