Sean Kingston is still in stable but critical condition at Miami's Jackson Memorial Hospital.

While Sean Kingston remains hospitalized in stable condition, details about the accident that left him critically injured are continuing to unfold.

Cassandra Sanchez, the friend who was riding a jet ski in Miami Beach with Kingston on Sunday when they crashed into the Palm Island Bridge, told TMZ.com they were traveling "REALLY fast" when the accident occurred.

The two of them, who were riding alongside another jet craft occupied by friends, were "going so fast we just blasted past them," she told the gossip site.

"When we turned a corner and crashed...," Sanchez recalled, "they were so far behind us they didn't even see us crash."

The woman alleged she had asked the 21-year-old singer to slow down, fearing they wouldn't fit beneath the low-level bridge. She added that Kingston may have lost control when he tried to turn away from the bridge at the last minute before crashing.

Sanchez said she and Kingston ? who "was coughing up blood, foam and pink stuff" after they wiped out ? were rescued by their friends but couldn't get serious help until a boat came along.

And, according to witnesses, Kingston's condition was worsened when his life vest came off, causing him to sink until rescuers were able to hold him up.

The "Beautiful Girls" singer, who remains in the Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital, "is lucid and understands what's going on" but is unable to talk due to a tube down his throat, Sanchez said.

As for her own condition, Sanchez told TMZ she is okay besides soreness in her ribs and jaw.

Kingston's publicist told CNN Tuesday he is in "critical but stable condition."

"Sean's family asks for privacy at this time but is thankful to his friends, family and fans for their outpouring of prayers and well wishes," his rep added.

Friend and rapper Trav further told CNN that Kingston had "just opened his eyes this morning" and was "doing well."
