Who wants to go paragliding at 26,400 ft?

Wholly smokes. Half-frozen paraglider who was sucked five miles into sky by vortex and left shivering in -40C conditions.

His pants are no longer clean.

Most likely the guy had an emergency Parachute.Could have cut away the canopy,go into free fall for a while and open the emergency chute.

Since he was in the mountains, may have not been a good option however.

That is a crazy story. Poor bastard.

I wonder why he didn’t pass out from hypoxia. He actually looks pretty alert for no oxygen at that altitude
