Rope rescue
Paraglider collapsed: pilot crashed
There were probably thermal problems during a paragliding flight by a Czech man on Monday. The 59-year-old crashed, had to be rescued by mountain rescuers and flown to hospital by the C7 team.
On Monday afternoon, the Czech took off from the Emberger Alm and flew west with his paraglider. According to the police, there may have been thermal problems in the area of the Mokarspitze, as the 55-year-old's paraglider collapsed.
The pilot went into a spin, pulled the emergency parachute and crashed in a spiral flight from a height of several meters onto a connecting path to the Leppneralm.
Two mountain rescuers and the C7 team rescued him using a rope and brought the injured man down to the valley. After receiving first aid from the emergency doctor, the 59-year-old was flown to Lienz hospital.
