MUSICAL PARAGLIDERS: Such sweet melody.

It was an attempt to get into the Guinness Book of Records. So, members of the carnival brass band "Bellalp Hexe" took to paragliding, but that was not all. They all played musical instruments too. The event took place in Fiesch, southwestern Switzerland and the aim was to get as many musicians as possible in the air simultaneously, piloted by experienced tandem paragliding pilots. Fiesch, is well known as the best place for paragliding in the Swiss alps. Twenty one paragliders participated in this adventurous project.
