This is a new young hang glider pilot, trained by his dad, an old timer on hang gliding and parachuting. They were doing his first high altitude flight on an old Airwave Vision. As you can see, just as soon as the pilot is aloft, one of the side cables snaps and the pilot crashes hard just before leaving the mountain. Fortunately only minor injuries on what could have been a fatal accident.
