Spread The Viralist



A paraglider had an extremely close call when his parachute failed to open during an “acro-paragliding” trick in Organya, Spain. Kevin Philipp survived the terrifying ordeal, and originally posted the footage to YouTube. In the YouTube caption, he explained that he was performing a trick in “strong turbulence” when his brake line got stuck.

  1. Nice that he problem-solved to save his own skin. Paragliding…no way.! Never! I take risks:diving, windsurfing, kitesurfing, snowboarding et. al. but certain risks are left well alone. ;=)…Small Plane Flying, Helicopter Flying, Paragliding, Base Jumping, Bunjee Jumping…to name but a few; you can also add @elonmusk;s bs about going to space or to that dead, irradiated, CO2 infested, roasting hot (day), freezing cold (night) lifeless rock: Mars.

  2. You can also be a proud owner your dream attainment, Dm for huge loan offer with no collateral and low credit score with the help of ACCLAIMBANKING.

  3. Die while bailing out of a disabled aircraft due to a parachute malfunction = tragedy.
    Die while parachuting for fun due to a parachute malfunction = just deserts for tempting fate.
