Paragliding first day out of lockdown: Dust devil, Crash!

Watch a paragliding incident develop from launch to landing. First the eagerness of setting a goal, then the ecstacy at altitude, then grim determination when all the height is lost. See if you can spot the signs of a pilot who's going to eat the dirt!

No pilots were harmed during this production. But ... the things I do to keep you amused. I deserve a golden cowpat.

The Extended Edition includes more about the control inputs, lessons learned and things to practice.
