遊覧飛行が大好きなパットンさん、パラシュートにエンジンを付けて飛んでいたとき、まさかの悲劇が・・・
 
160m上空から落ちて軽傷ですんだのは幸運だった、と言いつつ「退院したらまた飛びたい」のコメントに奥さんはあきれ顔・・・・

    An Idaho pilot is lucky to be alive this morning after a harrowing accident. His engine-powered parachute malfunctioned, sending him plummeting 100 feet to the ground.

And it was all caught on camera. Neal Karlinsky has his incredible story of survival.

 

Hoyt Patton loves to fly. He really is in an authorized aircraft known as PPC or powered parachute. And here‘s what it looked like from his point of view last week in footage licensed by ABC news. Taking off, rising up about a hundred feet, and then… disaster.

His parachute tangled and Patton plummets straight into the ground.

 

Can you help me? As he calls out for help, eye witnesses rush over to him.

“WE’VE GOT TO GET HIM OUT OF THE ****”

 

From his hospital bed, Patton says he knew he was going to crash.

 

He has a broken pelvis, ribs, and elbow. Watching the video is hard to even imagine how he survived. It’s like falling off a ten-story building.

 

“I’ve seen him do some pretty crazy take-off and landing. It’s scary to me but he’s not scared”  Patton knows he very lucky. “Lucky guy. This could have been a wheelchair.”

 

Pilots like to say that any landing that you can walk away from is a good 4one. Patton couldn’t exactly walk away from this one but he had quite a story to tell. And he says this flight won’t be his last. For good morning America, Neil Karlinsky, ABC News, Seattle.
