A viral video has shown a man paragliding in the air above a beach town.

However, he quickly descends and is suddenly faced with a huge forest of trees.

To avoid this he sharply steers to the right, quickly dropping and having to fly between the houses of the town.

What happens next is a heart-stopping watch.

He suddenly flies towards a house, before turning away at the last minute.

The man then comes inches away from the roof of another house but manages to escape it.

After missing a third and final house, he quickly flies between two hotels and is then onto the beach where he lands.

He manages to avoid a huge pile of rocks on the seafront as well.

The Imgur video has since had over 124,000 views, with online users terrified for the man.

One asked: “How can a video give me so much anxiety?”

Another doubted the stunt was planned.

They asked: “This is too dangerous to be on purpose,” although another user comically remarked: “You clearly underestimate the stupidity of humans.”

Another paraglider had less luck when flying through the air after an awkward accident.

They attempted to soar over the water whilst attached to their parachute as they started in the calm ocean.

A quick wind direction ends up scuppering their plans as they hover above the water.

They are then painfully thrown into the water again.
