Manic Monday: Blow me down!

Only his pride was hurt...

Scootering on a fine sunny day along the Victoria waterfront, my wife and I came across this scene... a para-glider over the local beach got caught in winds that blew him ashore and into a power line. Fortunately, he wasn't hurt although he did seem embarrassed by the attention he attracted from passing motorists and pedestrians.

It took a fire truck to come and unhook his lines from the overhead light. No word on whether he was facing any sort of fine or charges for his misfortune.
