  • 2:33 Died?

  • lol... 50 cent for a paragliding vid ???

  • GREAT video!! Nice resuce drop's!! And a wors paraglider music ever..:(

  • Mute.

    

  • why the gangster's music? kinda ruins the vid....

  • The pilot is well? what happened to him not playing the reserves?

  • wtf ?? Ive seen this video on some German school teaching emergency situations what to hell is it doing here whit this "music" ???

  • why the crappy music? if we want to listen to that crap, we would by a cd. or drive downtown chicago.

  • This is pretty cool. so what is paragliding. I thought it was like a parasail where you sit in a chair and bail out of a plane instead of being towed by a boat. this just looks like standard parachuting only they're crashing into each other :|

  • They do that because of training, that is the reason its always above a lake !!!

  • I actually saw a frontal collapse in person.. granted the guy was bein an idiot and it was at fifty feet. A reserve would not have helped in that situation but I still fly with one. 2:25 did not have one either after a spiral... yikes!

  • i'll stick to hang gliding..

  • i like the music, but me being very young in the paragliding community might have something to do with that, and they were doing SIV training, or testing there wings to see what they do, and @ryani810 i also fly ppg, and get a reserve it will save your ass when you least expect it,

    Allen (15yr old ppg, paraglider, and speedglider pilot)

  • @parapilot1453 Its O.K. all teenagers like crap music at some point.

  • I have a few ppg videos posted, I like the music. I think you might find that most of the people in the sport are kinda dorky old guys. Oh well, good to see some youth other than myself in the sport. I fly without a reserve, this video "intentional or not" kinda makes me want to get one. Good Vid!

  • @ryani810 The music is kife. Since when did niggers join air sports?? Blacks like fried chicken and are scared of heights.

  • Is the pilot a black guy who lives in a ghetto? If not get the fuckin music off.

  • @winterka100 Do only rich white people listen to beatles? no so why only black poor people listen to 50 cent, racist bitch

  • how come so many people crash at this same lake lol

  • Frameless and brainless- dopes on ropes

    Ya this music is using the horrible N word. Why is it they can say nigger all day and no one bats a fuckin eye. It's just plain Bull shit.

  • impressive video - regurgitating music. 

  • And the moral of the video is---> Shit music will make your wing fold up...........

  • EL VIDEO ES BUENO ...PERO QUE MUSICA TAN PECUECA

  • QUE MUSICA TAN PECUECA...EL VIDEO ES BUENO

  • Racist Music !

  • Racist shit music.

  • What a horrible music...

  • Bloody shame about the crap "music". Not cool and not good.

  • OMG these guys are crazy. You are flying a para glider not a f16 shit.

  • When paraglider pilots go flying, they should always bring along their own lake to crash into.

  • Horrible music.

  • How much does it cost to get into paragliding? I would need the equipment, lessons, and permit.

  • Some clubs in UK wil get you to club pilot level, licenced AND all kit pruchase for about £2.5k. You can but a wing for less than £1k. Cheaper second hand.

  • @VRslash2007 

    1200€ decent used equipment + 200€ beginers lesons +800€ intermediate lesons

  • ou fuck...

  • nigga music shit..

  • Horrible noise

  • Yeah dude you realy need one!

  • the name of music is position of power

  • @TheDavidson1996

    this isnt music... this is shit as FutzAndTinker says ;-)

  • whats the name of the song?

  • Amazing to hear what passes for 'music'. Turn that shit OFF!

  • @FutzAndTinker

    I fully agree!

  • sure would suck untangling all those lines!!!!!!

  • Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

  • Most of the accidents on this vid seem intended as they are flying over water. Which most paraglider pilots dont do. Unless they are trying or learning aerobatic maneuvers. If you get the right training by a good instructor and you fly when the conditions are right the chance of anything happening when you need a reserve parachute are pretty slim.

    Happy landings people.

  • hmmm it seems that so many of these primary parachutes malfunction, but the reserve chutes are more reliable, maybe they need to make the primary chute just like the reserve chute!

  • Man I was interested in this sport, but the seemingly random failure of the wing is putting me off...

  • I asked some of the guys at the gliding club here about it, they said get a hang glider. Paragliding is like sitting in an arm chair.... waiting for something bad to happen. I'm going for a HG now

  • They gave you advice that will save your life. Paragliders aren't safe. I saw an experienced pilot have a collapse, toss his reserve, and land in the trees...all the while, hang gliders were flying above the incident. Same air, different wing.

  • Wing only collapse if pilots do such maneuvres and dont do it right or when u fly in bad conditions wich u can't handle.

  • Great video man!

  • damn it's really dangerous to fall into water,if you move too much with your arms the lines will wrap around you and you'll drawn

  • Well fuck that. I'm cancelling my course.

    I've seen so many crash videos on tube now that i'm absolutely terrified of paramotoring.

  • You should probably throw away your drivers license to, because there is so much car accidencts on youtube

  • name of music plis rep music plis of name

  • woah some tought crashes... hope that never happens to me.. especially the second one, crashing into another one..

  • haha at 1:20 he looks like he's on fire lol

  • lol, he does! thats exactly what i thought

  • Shitty background noise...I won't dignify that garbage by calling it 'music'.

  • great video but awful music, looped as well... blah

  • Nice video- that's some shitty music though!

  • 2 guys crashing into each other and falling down spinning was impressive ( not that they made it on purpose, or did they ? :> )

  • impressive video, shit music

  • @123scrirock123

    Couldnt of put it better myself :)

  • Cool video, cool song.

  • The reason that they are all over water is that these pilots are either into acro (like me) and competitions are usually done over water for safety. Or they are practicing moves on an SIV course (Simulated Incidents en Vol} its a French term generally used to describe practicing maneuvers that seldom occure naturally to prepare yourseld for those rare occasions that you have some bad air or make a mistake.

  • I haven't read all the comments. Did somebody already say these were all done on purpose from professionals? Notice the lake in every crash? I'm sure somebody else has already said it, but just in case . . that's what's going on. And yes, the music is awful.

  • Too bad a good video has such terrible music. I had to hit the mute button on my computer since I got tired of hearing the F word over and over. I guess if you are 13 years old then this music is cool. Otherwise, good video.

  • Nice Video, but leave that damn song out of it if you want to call it that, It ruins the video.

  • Impressive video, shit music.

  • Impressive video, shit music

  • what is everybody arguing about? this is a reserve parachute deployment clinic, done over water, it prepares experienced paraglider pilots and trains them for that critical moment, nothing more, nothing less.

  • great! whats the name of song?

  • I always wondered if these guys have some sort of backup. Good job they do.

    They are doing a dangerous sport, but they have obviously done all that can be done to make it as safe as possible, let people have fun man don't try to wrap everyone up in cotton wool.

  • gay song.

  • why stupid? it;s an awesome sports and paragliders accept that its also dangerous, better to have a reserve chute. stupid would be to fly without one.

  • i*ts amazing how people like you are still arround .....I thought you were extinct or something.

  • paragliding is´nt a great item to flight... fly in deltas... it´s more safe and extreme

  • In first situation reserve was not needed. Wing went back to normal but a pilot deployed a reserve to early. Better that than too late.

  • it doesn't look like the reserve slows you down a hole lot seems like it would still hurt when you hit land??

  • True, although not as efficient as a regular chute, weight is kept to an absalute minimum.. you will live at least.

  • 50 cent position of power .... vid is great

  • looks like a fireball^^

  • Excellent post -- you think you're safe when the reserve comes out?

  • ok. ummmmmmmm how do they get out of the water? that looks fun!

  • Nice vid ,nice sound

  • Geat Footage!Crap music!Still4 stars!lol

  • Fag

  • it seems the water does more to 'save em' than the extra chute....

  • Do you eat with that same mouth? You turned some great video into "trash" with the sound trac.

  • nice vid, makes me wanna put my reserve on my new motor :-)

  • Perfect choice of music!!!

  • thats 50cent bitches

  • I am a hang glider pilot but love and respect both sides as the sky is for sharing. I am just thankful to see the chute save you guys. A sucker for a happy ending :))

  • rap sucks, u ruin the vid

  • ca calme !

  • very educational

  • ça fait réfléchir sur la nécessité d'avoir un parachute de réserve.

  • shit!

  • scary stuff, i am trying to decide between which sport to take up para or hang gliding

  • why the sucky music????

  • you ask me they didnt really need a chute like that.

  • I'm not a paraglider, but for me it seems that those reserve parachutes don't slow you down as much as they should.

  • They do, my friend, they do!

  • Man, that last guy must have got dizzy. Surprised if his eyes didn't get sucked out.

  • Horrable music; good shots of people deploying parachutes.

  • Great vid...crappy music

  • Much better muted.

  • its a blanket not a parachute>

  • Pretty lame if you dont have a backup...hope you make it.

  • Do you have spring loaded reserves? When I jumped in the Army we had spring loaded reserves; just pull the handle and it pops out. Very cool though I think I want to try the powered version.

  • No spring loaded reserves on a paraglider. That's for parachutes. Paragliders have a single bridal to the deployment bag you grab the bag and toss it out into clean air, it has a pilot chute attached/integrated with the freebad and it pops off when line stretch is reached. All those deployments are physically thrown.

  • excuse typos ^freebag^

  • Don't forget the high dollar ballistic reserves that use an explosive charge for deployment.

  • I have not heard of their use with paragliders and so I am not familiar with their use. I know there are deployment systems for small fixed wing aircraft like this, but again I am not familiar with them. I'm also a skydiver and I spoke with a military HALO jumper once who mentioned a system like this, but he was light on details sports jumpers do not use equipment like this.

  • great video, terrible choice of music

  • Yea I forgot to mention that...Ghetto music does NOT mix with paragliding or anything pure and decent for that matter. What do you mean sim?...that was real ground and a real spiral nothing simulated about it.

  • Id be very surprised if that spiral to the ground wasn't fatal or didnt cause serious injury...he either didnt have a reserve or didnt think of/feel it neccesary to pull the reserve(b/c he thought he would be able to get out of the spiral)...either way I feel bad for him and am sorry if he died.

  • He's actually probably okay - even though that did look pretty grim. This whole video is just simulated accidents, so that death spiral was probably just a more extreme sim.

  • that last guy threw his reserve in his wings lines lol

  • WHY THE PORCH APE MUSIC ?

  • lol

  • wwaoww,,,,hummmmmmmmmm,,hooooo­oommmmmmmmmmhehheheh

  • Video makes me want to go get my reserve re-packed! That reminds me. I need a new reserve stow bag.

  • Holly shit. That crash at 2:35 didn't look good. The guy was in a spiral and hit hard. Anyone know if he made it?

  • Damn music .... but good camera

  • Crap Music but useful video footage

  • sick

  • Nice video!

    The music is just rank ass crappy rap.

  • It's not true that is no accident in the movie, because one guy is landing with spiral on the ground, or better said in the ground.

    But that's true that most of theese pictures are from Safety trainings.

  • I guess most of them are from SIV trainings/courses.

  • you can see very good how the reserve opens.

    but a lot of rope-salad after landing, i don't want to sort...hahaha...

  • Even with the reserves open those guys are coming down fast

  • Powered paragliding and paragliding certainly have risks, but if yu don't do stupid things you usually don't find yourself in these situations.

    Fly smart and chances are very, very good you'll never need to toss your reserve.

  • Perhaps I won't learn to paraglide after all.

  • You'll also notice that every landing is in water. That's no accident. These guys are pushing it really hard on purpose and doing it over water so they don't get hurt.

    Your average pilot isn't out doing this stuff every day.

  • they are doing it on purpose. it's called SIV. Simulation d'Incidentes de Vol (if my frech is ok). so do not hurry to call ppl stupid.

  • although only the first sequence is from a siv. my mistake :P

  • thats what i thought...

    oh and next time, dont hurry to tell people not to tell you stupid

    lol

  • you are so "smart". I saw your kind, they know everything...in theory...they even try to explain to you how things should be made...although when asked to do them by themselves they can't. this is just the sae knid of ppl like you, they are so smart. kiss my arse

  • actually, yes i am smart, and not only can i explain how a lot of things are done, but i actually can do it by myself.. see.. you were wrong.. you dont know people like me :) ... simple stupid )

  • lol yeah just go tell him!

  • I just did ;)

  • They may be doing the maneuvers and "incidents" (like collapses) on purpose, but the point of an SIV clinic is to learn to recover from/correct the problem: they are not up there to chuck the laundry on purpose.

  • yes they did, kid

  • SIV=Simulation d'Incidents de Vol....good traduction ;-)

  • in order:

    1. SIV or Safety training (for me it seems Lake Bohinj, Slovenia)

    2. Bohinj also, midair on SIV.

    3.Acro competition, mistake

    4.Seems SIV, looks bad.

    5. SIV, Monaco. I even know the pilot.

    Right spin, then left spin. These were instructed :) He wasn't able to manage the situation properly. However the SAT (an acro manouver) in the end is nice :)
