@@persianairsports2828 could you please answer a complicated question for me. I saw a very talented cross country pilot he weighed as much as I do and he was a foot longer and he was probably as big around as my thigh lol. He said something that haunts me in my thoughts all day."he who glide slowest glides best."he had won a race. He was in a pod harness he was laying flat cutting the least amount of drag for the pilot that possibly could happen. It would seem he was hanging on to the edge of control. Flying at minimum sink so close to a stall, for hours on end active flying total concentration. Truly inspirational a beautiful person and a beautiful thing and hell to the no. I want to get a stand-up harness. I'm considering a witches broom underneath me to sit on and a witch's hat as well. I have an epsilon 9 I bought and I'm flying heavy on the wing I'm barely within the weight limits. With all this extra drag I think the nose should tip down a little bit and fly fast. The glide ratio will not be very good. This will cause the minimum sink to be very high. I am curious when I do all this and I fly at minimum sink, will my minimum sink speed be farther from my stall speed?
I have been as a passenger on a tandem flight once. I thought it was a great experience. From videos I have noticed, 1 there is a danger when a large multiple flights are in the same small area, with one flying into another's wing. 2 the wind can deflate the wing if it blows wrong or maybe it stops blowing. 3 never go up without an emergency parachute.
As a long time hang glider pilot who started flying hang gliders in the 70s before they really had any airworthiness standards and lots of people were getting hurt or killed because of it, I look at how easily paraglider wings fold up and stop being a functioning wing I realize just how safe hang gliding has become over the years.
A great advert for "reasons why to not teach yourself paragliding and make sure you get some good quality instruction". People 'assisting' these novice pilots seem to have little idea what they are doing....
100 % agree. If your instructurs takes YOU off and pushes you from the hill... you learn nothing. Get proper instructors. There are none in this video.
Hard to tell the back story of each incident, but the moral is students and low airtime pilots make mistakes...alot....good Instruction is critical,and not all instructors are good....shop around people, your life depends on it.
Mute the sound of the videos you're posting if you're gonna paste your own music over the compilation. It sounds obnoxious to listen to two different audio tracks playing at once.
It seems that in several cases when takeoff, they were not against the direction of the air, they needed a wind-sock or something, so they are not pulled up but laterally, then they stall
I love these videos but some of them are difficult to explain why it went wrong. If someone is suddenly sitting on top of your wing what do you do? I'd say put on both brakes hard and see if you can stop and have him fall off the front
@@persianairsports2828 it might be a good time to throw your reserve too so if the guy collapses your wing at least you have something full. I'm not sure there's a proper response to someone landing on your wing lol
@@Birddogfish thank you for the answer. I am afraid of the speed bar. If you had enough altitude to collapse and reinflate it wouldn't bother me too much. may I ask you another question? I'm a new pilot I'm still in school and I bought an epsilon nine. I am heavy on the way I have to be sure to go to the bathroom before I launch so I'm not over the limit. I saw a cross country pilot that weighed as much as I do and he was two feet taller than I am and his big around as my thigh. He said"he who glides slowest glides best". It would seem to me that he is flying along active flying on that fussy wing just about ready to stall the whole time he's in the air to get that kind of distance. I want to get a stand-up harness so I'm not laying down in a pod. I also want to sit on a broom while I fly and wear a witches hat. With all this parasitic drag from the pilot my glide ratio will be low. My minimum sink will be kind of bad too. It would seem to me that with this kind of parasitic drag on the pilot it tips the nose down. If the nose is get down and the minimum sink flight speed is high does that mean I am farther from a stall?
maybe in Iran because of obvious lack of proper instructors/knowledge of weather. But this is clearly not normal in the Alps, where most people fly and this sport was invented.
Lots of pilots hoisting themselves into the harness by grabbing the risers and pulling themselves up. Never grab the risers. Also lots of stalls in this collection, pilots getting wild deep in the brakes.
Been flying private light aircraft for near 40yrs now, own a Cirrus SR22 And paragliding seems like one of the most dangerous 2nd only tot base jumping and 3rd would be hang gliding. Sorry but paragliding looks like playing around with a parachute which is not all stable to begin with and its crazy how so many share the same small air space its no wonder why so many collide etc. And so scary to deploy and a reserve while the main is still flapping and twisting around the pilot. The reserve could easily get entangled with the main its why skydivers cut the main chute loose 1st.
I used to be a flight instructor for powered parachutes. I'd never risk flying these modern paraglider wings. In the quest to gain the highest aspect ratios and efficiency, stability and safety have taken a back door. They've become so unstable and prone to unrecoverable stalling. Not my kind of aviation I'd be seeking.
I am not sure when you were an instructor but you did not necessarily describe ''modern'' wings. Where it is true high performance, high aspect ratio wings exist, that is far from ALL wings. EN ratings were created for exactly that reason. In other words, in modern times there are a full range of wings, which allows the pilot to choose the wing characteristics for his own risk and skill level.
You describing modern wings is just wrong. Its like saying cars back in the days were much safer because they had less powerful engines. That might sound reasonable for someone who does not know cars. It is still wrong.
There are at least three more bad accidents, not shown in the video, in Iran, this year, as I know. 1. A tandem flight in golestan, at new year holidays, where the passenger was not properly attached to the harness, and fell down fatally, from more than 100 meters height. 2. Two Pilots starting from mountain in Derasno 2500 m, and in foggy condition they hit the trees in the forest, and were hanging, one tried to go down, but fell from these high trees fatally to the ground. The other pilot was found by rescue people. 3. I also saw myself the result of a pilot crashing at the place of take off, into a car at the parking, at Mahdiraje Paragliding Site. The car was badly damaged, and the pilot was transported away with ambulance . I guess that was a top landing attempt that went wrong. I noticed that the wind direction could change quite quickly at the site.
일반적이지 않은 사고도 있지만, 반은 기본을 전혀 익히지 않고, 사고를 내는 비행. 즉, 레슨해 주는 사람이 문제거나 운영이 문제라는 것. 그리고 그 외의 사고중 많이 보이는 것이 사막성 상황에서 벌어지는 사고 같음. 한국과는 다른 조건에서 벌어지는 것이라 그냥 알아두면 됨. 뭐냐하면 사막같은 조건에서 일어나는 강한 서멀은 기체를 찌그러트린다는 것.
There are accidents that are not common, but half of them don't learn the basics at all and fly, which causes accidents. In other words, the person teaching is the problem or the management is the problem. And most of the other incidents seem to take place in desert conditions. It happens in different conditions than Korea, so you just have to know. In other words, the intense heat that occurs in desert conditions distorts the aircraft.
I have 3000 skydives, 690 base jumps, ten thousand hours+ flying numerous airplanes, and I can say with pure truth and conviction, this is the most dangerous sport I've ever been associated with. In my first 6 months I witnessed 6 times more fatalities than everything else combined in my 40 years of living. I had numerous extremely scary situations, I'd say I'm very lucky to be alive after. Never again. It's boring too.
@@TrevoZnaniy I thought you might have meant poor quality accidents and that set me thinking is there such a thing as good quality accidents. All is now clear, if not in HD ;)

Ask your instructor about stall speeds!

Все падения с одного и того же склона) не в один день, случайно? 🤣
Да, это то же самое на нескольких видеосайтах

Murphy’s law in action….seems to me those pilots have little clue on flying fundamentals and safety…
Of course, some of them are very beginners
@@persianairsports2828 that is no justification of what happens in this video. get proper instructors. you clearly do not have them.

For fifty bucks you can buy a better camera then this.
Yes, definitely. The videos were taken by different pilots who had cameras with different qualities
Я понимаю что это подборка за долгие годы, но видно что в Иране очень много камикадзе, это же опасный вид спорта, развивайте школы и курсы.
Да, обучение очень важно, и, к счастью, в последние годы оно увеличилось, и лучшие пилоты мира проводят хорошие семинары.
