There's an adage among pilots: "It's better to be on the ground, wishing you were in the air, rather than to be in the air, wishing you were on the ground". This qualifies as one of those moments. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing! :) Waoow! Nice job cameraman! It’s why it’s paramount to check the weather forecast before the flight. That pilot otherwise did manage well.
What country is this? As a farmer and hot air balloonist this is staggering!!!!!! It makes my stomach churn. Just watching this i find amazing!!!!!!! you filmed this just after another person filmed the first part. I live in the uk and this is a hot air balloonists worst nightmare!!!!! I just hope all in the basket were ok. This is an amazing and truley very rare footage i have ever seen of a hot air balloon in a thunder storm. I wish you all the best and thankyou for putting this on youtube.If any pilot was in doubt about flying in or around a thunder storm this proves to all pilots there worst fears. Well done and thankyou for sharing this,it will shock many pilots in a positive way to be alert of thunderstorms.
Either that storm popped up out of nowhere, or the pilot thought he could get a quick flight in before the weather got bad. Or just ignored the forecast completely.
In such a situation you do not have full control over the ballon, he was lucky to bring it down like that. Probably he will study the meto better next time.
I'm glad the guy got down alright, good bit of survival flying there. He should however lose his license for making the decision to fly in the first place.

Wouldn't the clouds have put the fire out or weighed down the balloon?

Do they exist accidents where a balloon was struck by lighting?

Maybe he should've read the weather forecast.
To bylo několik lidí, co se ten den nenudilo. 🙂Vědět, že to přežiju, tak bych to snad chtěl i zažít. Je to šílený. 🙂

That is crazy to flying in a storm like that.
shaolin dynasty he most likely launched in good weather and then the storm caught up to him as you would not be able to inflate a balloon in that wind
Good point.
Koukám video staršího data ale i tak to musím napsat to přistání muselo bolet ale měl ohromné štěstí jak to dopadlo
The basket fell off?!?
no

Any pilot that would even attempt a flight in these conditions needs to have his license revoked! Completely irresponsible!
Danger ?
No.

How did he inflate it first? Maybe it was calm during inflation?
Probably thought they could get a flight in before the storm hit.

Brown pants time!
Aircraft with no control stick and a fire already onboard have never appealed to me!

Crap! The balloon is in the storm cloud
It seems breezy.
