The viral clip captures the paraglider descending through a colorful trail of red and blue smoke. However, instead of landing on the designated field, the glider miscalculated the approach and ended up crashing into the VIP section, where the chief guest and other dignitaries were seated.
Chaos unfolded as attendees scrambled for safety. While no injuries were reported, the paraglider found himself tangled in the damaged parachute.
The video has garnered over 600,000 views, sparking a flood of humorous reactions online. Comments ranged from comparing the landing to the Green Goblin’s dramatic entrance in Spider-Man to jokes about free biryani distribution. One user quipped, “Never a day goes by when Pakistan isnāt doing Pakistani things,” while another added, “He probably landed on the same spot during practiceāblame the organizers for putting VIP seating there!”
This unexpected twist at the event has turned the paraglider into an accidental internet sensation.
