A Swiss man thought going for a hang-glider ride during his vacation would be a good time until he found himself hanging on for dear life because the pilot forgot to attach his safety harness to the glider.

The terrifying video of the the hell ride was captured by a cam mounted on the glider and shows the poor sonofabitch realizing seconds after takeoff that he wasn’t attached to the bird and making like Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible as the pilot attempts to land the thing.

The passenger ended up breaking his wrist in the hot landing, but hey, it beats dying. You can see from the video he posted that he has a better sense of humor about the whole thing than most people would. Almost taking a dirt nap will do that.
