Fatal accident in Achenkirch in the Tyrolean district of Schwaz on Friday! Two locals (36 and 39) wanted to enjoy a flight with their paragliders. However, nothing came of it. Because immediately after take-off, one of the two fell about 100 meters.
According to the police, the two Tyroleans took off with their paragliders from the top of the “Vorderunnütz” (2078 meters) in Achenkirch around 4 p.m. The flight in fantastic weather ended immediately with the serious accident. “There were complications when the 39-year-old started,” the investigators said.
Flown to hospital by helicopter
The pilot crashed and hit the rocky meadow about 100 meters below the summit. “When the 36-year-old noticed the accident, he landed in the flat top area, administered first aid and started the rescue chain.” The 39-year-old was flown to Schwaz hospital by the rescue helicopter with serious injuries.
