Dramatic footage of a motorpowered paraglider failing to take off and smashing into some motorbikes and cars.

The video, filmed in Brazil this week, shows the paraglider taxiing down a dusty road ahead of takeoff but it fails to get any lift and instead veers off the left and clatters into some parked vehicles.

Fortunately, according to the filmer, there were no serious injuries.
