John & Neil fly their paramotors but due to a power loss Neil lands in pine trees. His paramotor and wing were retrieved without any damage and no doubt due to his emergency landing technique. Video taken with Samsung WB500

  • Oops!

    Is everyone okay?

    Sultan.

  • @alnajashey Yes. The pilot, paramotor and wing all suffered no damage at all in the end but it did take quite a while to retrieve the wing which was left overnight. The trees were quite dense so Neil was able to unclip and climb down safely.

  • LOL what a nugget

  • Glad to hear he was ok. Trees seem fairly good places to crash!

  • @TONYPARAMOTOR Not sure why his engine cut but he was quick to say he shouldn't have been flying over a forest without being able to glide clear.

  • sorry,. how did he land in trees?in a large area?

  • so after all the preflight checks.what was the cause of the{ POWER LOSS}?and why while flying did he land in trees?
