Paragliding Wing Collapse at Dunlap, California

A sudden lateral gust causes a strong pendulum motion followed by a wing collapse shortly after launch while paragliding in Dunlap, California, almost resulting in an accident. In shock, the camera man stopped filming when the collapse started. The pilot, flying an Advance Alpha 3 wing, was way too close to the ground for comfort but recovered.
