That Time A Paraglider Got Tangled Up In A Chairlift Cable

“Third flight of the day at the same place, the sun has turned, I got distracted filming my shadow after takeoff… I was only hanging by a single carabiner.”

Rules at ski resort in Europe are bit loosey goosey compared to what is acceptable stateside and sometimes that tolerance for all things rad goes sideways. Such was the case at for this speedflyer in Cordon, France who was momentarily distracted filming his own shadow and collided with a lift cable shortly after takeoff, leaving dangling in the wind above the ski resort. Luckily ski patrol was on scene lickety split and lowered him safely without injury. Wild scene for sure.
