A terrible sports accident took place in the Tyrolean Zillertal on Thursday afternoon. A paragliding pilot (33) was killed. Locals were traveling with a friend. But the flight ended in tragedy. The 33-year-old fell 150 meters.
According to the first information, the two sports enthusiasts walked together from the parking lot of the valley station of the Horbergbahn in Schwendau to the starting point “Perler”. After the demanding climb, the flight in beautiful autumn weather should be the reward. They wanted to meet again at the valley station.
Umbrella suddenly collapsed
But there was no more reunion. For unknown reasons, the 33-year-old local’s umbrella collapsed during landing. The man fell about 150 meters into the depths. The Tyrolean suffered fatal injuries in the collision. The emergency services could no longer do anything for the injured person.
