On the long list of things that you don’t want to happen to you while paragliding, being hit by a plane must be near the top. Well, a 44-year-old woman known only as Sabrina experienced just that over the weekend, but displayed some extremely quick thinking that thankfully saved her life.
In a video posted to Instagram, Sabrina is peacefully paragliding through the skies near Piesendorf in northern Austria when, out of nowhere, a small plane suddenly appears and slams into her chute. The impact shreds the material, severs the ropes, and sends Sabrina into a violent and disorienting spiral.
