At a hot air balloon festival in France, things take a terrifying turn when a mishap sends a man flying up into the air. But, have no fear! The incident was actually a well-orchestrated stunt performed by The Cirque Inextrémiste Montgolfière, an extreme hot air balloon circus. The group specializes in shocking performances that leave audiences in awe, and we have to admit, they got us good. Bravo!
