In a shocking turn of events caught on camera, a man assisting two people attached to a paragliding aircraft was pulled up in the sky owing to pressure from gusty winds.
The incident occurred in Chile as the video shows an instructor and a student strapped into a paragliding aircraft and dressed in all the suitable gear, including crash helmets.
It shows that as soon as the instructor was strapping belts around the student, the wind blew them up in a dangerous way that the teacher remained hanging onto the front of the harness as the paragliders get higher and higher.
However, the pilot of the aircraft acted sensibly and drag it to a lower altitude, helping the man to jump to a safe location.
Fortunately, the ground worker was unharmed in the incident.
