Footage outside the Grand Forks shows that the paragliders on the red river shows hovering when all the things suddenly get hiders … The wing gets stuck in a power line, setting a huge blue spark and a flame.
Betting into the power line, the propeller-operated cart of the paraglider flipped and the bottom is upside down into the river.
Incredibly, paraglider went away from this uninhabited … local media outlet Kvrr The Grand Forks Fire Department showed a boat to save the pilot with the help.
All this went down on Tuesday night after sunset… and the lucky people of the paraglider saw and called for help.
Paraglider wings starts around $ 3,000 … So it was an expensive mistake !!!
