In fact, several men managed to grab a long rope that is attached to the device and tried to pull it to the ground. Despite the intense results, it was a fairly slow process.
Similarly, other witnesses obtained a giant tarp and stretched it out in case the man fell from the hot air balloon at any moment.
“Hold on, hold on!”, it is heard in the Twitter video that the subject was shouted from the ground. But one of the scariest moments was when the protagonist of the video, he lost the strength in his arms and was completely released from the basket.
Luckily, by that time several seconds had passed and the balloon was a little closer to the ground. However, a fall from that height could be fatal.
The man was saved from death after making a quick and intrepid movement as he fell and managed to grab the rope that other people were pulling.
At the end of the video posted on Twitter, it is observed how the man reaches the ground safe and sound, while the people around him celebrated what happened.
For their part, Twitter users denounced that the door of the balloon basket was opened and that this device belongs to the Teotiballoons company, which does not have the necessary permits to provide this service to tourism.
“It is a fraud, they only elevate it for pure photo. The truth is, save your $ 2,000 for a real balloon ride, ”wrote one of the tweeters.
