💨 Abstract

During a Bristol International Balloon Fiesta, a hot air balloon narrowly avoided disaster by colliding with a primary school's roof. The basket tipped dangerously, but the pilot's quick actions steered it back up. Onlookers feared passengers might fall out. This incident follows a fatal crash in Turkey, where two hot air balloons fell with tourists on board. The Bristol Balloon Fiesta is a free, three-day event with hundreds of balloons taking off.
