i watched the Buzz collapse at the festival....helicopter took 50 mins to arrive; mort. Never have your hands off-breaks untill away from hill!!! he adjusted his seat and hit a thermal ;
The guy with the Buzz5 did survive with some injuries. Oddly enough I was there when it happened, watching. Correct me if I'm wrong, but It looks like ICARE cup 2015, right?
@@brk_can frontal collapse. he just got a big gust that folded it. he probably would have flown out if he had another 100 feet to fall and recover. but that time where you're falling with the wing horizontal to you..
Steeper launch pads are safer... Always full alertness until enough ground distance (50m). Standing position until then! Call it a save launch when out of the Red Zone (100m).
It's funny when people ask "is that guy OK? Of course he is not OK. What do you think will happen when you fall from 20-30m on a solid ground? He was unlucky there were no trees or bushes to dampen the impact. That whole launching side looks scary. The hill on the R/H side could be producing lot of unexpected turbulence even when you are directly facing wind blow

You can minimize the risk substantially. Knowledge dispels fear and choosing conditions/sites/wings to match your reaction time/decision making strongly influence the risk factor. + its flying, try it and make you'll get addicted xDD
nah, pilot was completely complacent didn't do anything to try to stop the collapse or recover or throw reserve. He wasn't even on the brakes in the critical stage of the flight
@@matiascorvinus1769 pumping the braked out a bit to pressurize the wing might have helped? that collapse was so massive so low the reserve throw is a stretch, no?
@@isaacswan if I had a collapse like that at that height I like to think I would go straight to reserve but yes id call it a stretch too I stand by my point of he did nothing, especially if I wasn't holding the brakes instead of fumbling around for them id go for reserve as to the collapse itself, its a low en b (quite low) so I would expect a dampening of the open side to significantly decrease the angel of incidence when he hit the ground (he might not even have hit the ground, you can fly half a wing no problem, give it a go (to figure out how much brake it takes before stalling) but mostly the thing that would improve his chances would be hand on brakes, stop or reduce the collapse
@@matiascorvinus1769 Ya i flew without my vario yesterday because i forgot to put it on. i could have took my hands off the brakes to pull it out of my pocket but there was no way . just stupid decision making to take those hands off the brakes.
Hello! Are you the original owner of this video? If possible I would like to contact you over mail regarding the permission to use this video in a video production about paragliding incidents. Thanks in advance!
the second one is a classic example of what speed riders call dead mans curve, he was already hard on the brakes, had no flare energy left and tried to flare over that obstacle. when going downwind this is especially common because one mistakes the airspeed for higher than it really is the first one is just silly imo, prolly didn't want to go for another pass who knows
Tom Power hey could stabilize the left side and didn't get a left collapse at all - but he didnt. And after the collapse suddenly stabilize the right side, but yes this was difficult and bad luck. But tge first one was preventable. I just analysed with a 15years experienced pro guy. But maybe for a beginner it's difficult and bad luck
2:22 that must have hurt. Damn.
So much splicy goodness in this compilation but my favorite cut had to be the attempted landing in the trunk of the car.

JESUS CHRIST CAN I JUST FIND A SINGLE VIDEO WITHOUT AWFUL AND LOUD MUSIC IN IT
I use the mute button :)
Think I’ll stick to skydiving.
Music is totally unnecessary but a easy way to bypass copyright I suppose...
Like a good neighbor
.40 it's really scary. Wish I am not that guy.
2:20 is Buzz 5 - high passive safety wing... it did not seamed to me very safe :)
maybe overload for acro flying? I don't know.
What’s happening there? Is it a bunch of lines snapping?
@@brk_can frontal collapse. he just got a big gust that folded it. he probably would have flown out if he had another 100 feet to fall and recover. but that time where you're falling with the wing horizontal to you..
@@isaacswan Thanks. Yeah the collapse is very clear when I look at it now, I don't know why I asked this question 6 months ago :)

1:24 i forgot to close the windows
I'm sure glad that I never got any father than a probe flight.
Looks like the guy on the buzz5 let go of the brakes just as the wing was speeding up, hope he is ok.

The Darwin challenge
HI .. Please what's the song name?
Vermutlich leider die Meisten Piloten mit wenig Erfahrung.
I don’t understand why take these type of risk. This take a bunch of courage

I would know more about the huge deflation with this buzz5 at 2:20. how could it happen???
I think that the pilot wanted to set in his sellette. It loose his break at the moment of the turbulence. not chance :/
2:17 gives you good reason to reconsider this sport altogether...

2.20 that guy must have fallen at least 25 metres blimmin Terrible.to see.

Why would you want to wear short pants in doing this?
Why train people to fly next to pine trees?
00:58 and 02:47 ... Are they humans ? Maybe blind...

in short !! hahahahaha :D
I am going to stick with hang gliding...
Yeah cus no one ever crashes them 😂

Is this guy at 2:20 ok? :O
anyone know how that left asymmetric collapse morphed into a full one, he didn't have a chance!
Tom Power the first collapse he could prohibite, next one is bad luck but also this he could handle better
Jan, not sure my friend, he was going straight and level and riding into the sunset, didn't see any unusual attitude there
Tom Power hey could stabilize the left side and didn't get a left collapse at all - but he didnt. And after the collapse suddenly stabilize the right side, but yes this was difficult and bad luck. But tge first one was preventable. I just analysed with a 15years experienced pro guy. But maybe for a beginner it's difficult and bad luck

Why do they not use paragliders ??? These are parafallers...
Paragliding sucks.
Ultralight aircraft, much safer and highly controllable.
ALSO NOISY AND POLLUTING
