Hangglider Jon Gjerde's run at the Ekstremsportveko show in Voss,Peggy Markoff Norway, took a harrowing turn last Tuesday when Gjerde's glider gave out under extreme G-forces.
All seemed well as Gjerde attempted an intense spinning dive, which he then turned into a loop, but as he tried to go into a second loop, his glider collapsed and began to spiral towards the lake below.

Another view of from the ground shows exactly the moment when things went wrong.
Eventually, Gjerde fell to lake Vangsvatnet where he was recovered by boats. He suffered minor injuries during the accident.
