I saw this quite a while ago but it wasn't until recently that I found the YouTube video. I posted the screen shot I took  back when I first saw the video and in the big scheme of things ... that was pretty damn close.

SUMMARY
An aircraft of the model SAAB MFI 15 took off from Sundbro, Uppsala, for a VFR flight to Johannisberg, Västerås. Shortly thereafter began winching of a paraglider from Härkeberga, located along the aircraft's route.
At the final stage of the winching, at about 350 meters altitude, the paraglider pilot saw an airplane coming straight at him at a slightly lower altitude. The aircraft passed below the paraglider a few seconds later without colliding. The height difference was estimated by the paraglider pilot to about 50 feet and the distance to the line was 1 to 3 meters.
The pilot of the aircraft never perceived the event. The map data that the pilot used - and which is the most widely used in general aviation - had no special marking of the paragliding activities at Härkeberga. Neither the paraglider nor the aircraft flew at altitudes implying contact with controlled airspace.
In order to investigate the possible consequences,SHK commissioned a study of a hypothetical sequence of events where the aircraft collides with the line. The overall conclusion from the study is that no serious consequences would have occurred in a collision between the aircraft and the paraglider line.The incident was caused by the pilot's flight maps lacking data on paragliding activities at Härkeberga which meant that the flight could not be planned and carried out safely. Contributing factor has been reduced visibility due to backlight conditions.
