Hot Air Balloon Accident In Brazil

There's no way I would get my ass into a hot air balloon.

A hot air balloon accident in Brazil has claimed the lives of at least eight people.
Twenty-one people boarded the balloon on Saturday morning in the city of Praia Grande, according to the governor of Santa Catarina, Jorginho Mello.
“21 people on board – 8 fatalities, 13 survivors,” Mello posted to X on Saturday. “Our teams continue to provide all necessary support to families and victims.”
“We are all shocked by the accident,” the governor said. “We continue to monitor the situation.”
Praia Grande is in southern Santa Catarina, which is a popular tourist destination, the BBC noted.
Video of the tragic accident was posted by an aviation news account, showing a fiery crash to the ground.
It’s unclear what caused the accident.

"According to the pilot, who is one of the survivors, a fire started inside the basket, so he started to lower the balloon, and when the balloon was very close to the ground he told people to jump," officer Tiago Luiz Lemos, from the Praia Grande police station, told reporters at the scene.

You can see at least one person who jumped or fell out. I'm sure that didn't enhance his survivability chance at all.

Arnolds Last Day At The We Have It All Store ...

Notice how the employee in blue took a look and judiciously moved out of the way. I actually think the employee operating the forklift thought he could overcome the inevitable by pushing on the steering wheel.

 Spanish police boat RUNS OVER migrant speedboat.

Dramatic footage captured the moment a police boat ran over a speedboat believed to be carrying four migrants.
While no serious injuries were reported, the video has caused quite a stir online as people debate the moral and legal implications of what occurred. According to The Telegraph, the police were attempting to cut off the speedboat when they cut too far and ran over the smaller vessel.
“The speedboat’s four passengers were flung into the water but quickly rescued. One required brief hospital treatment in the Moroccan city of Nador, while the other three were unhurt,” the Telegraph reported.

Somebody's gonna need stitches. Do people LOOK before they do anything anymore.

I'm sure some of y'all can come up with a lot of crude comments, BUT the only thing I'm gonna say is she's probably missing some hide and hair and I'll bet it burns when she pees for a while.

 It's like they have no idea of the power of the machine or they're just brain dead. As long as I rode a motorcycle I tried to keep both tires on the ground. I ain't scared, but I'm definitely not stupid. Respect the machine.
