Stallworth was with his girlfriend & others when the hot air balloon they were in hit power lines. He's in the hospital with severe burns, but is expected to make a full recovery.
Guy has no luck when it comes to transportation & hitting things.

Karma caught up with him. Too bad his gf was involved too.

Eh, I wouldn't call it karma. His "dui" case was a joke. Hopefully his girlfriend & the others are OK.

Out here in New Mexico we have the biggest Hot Air Baloon Festival in the World. Each year there are some that have accidents, crashing into powerlines seems to be the most common. Normally different wind drafts will push it in the wrong direction, 9 times out 10 its a pilot's error. Hopefully they make a full recovery... and the person pulling the karma card is full of it.

They're overrated & not making the Playoffs next season.

Are hot air balloons difficult to operate? And by some accidents are they rare or just not talked about much?
Its not major injuries so hopefully they're both fine.

Hot air balloons are up there on the the world's most useless activities.

It wasn't useless when it was the only way to fly for over a century. |

| I don't trust hot air balloons... Or any other transportation where the pilot can't actually control where it goes. |
