At least eight people have died after a hot air balloon crash in Brazil, CNN reported, focus-news.net reported.
"We are all shocked by the balloon crash in Praia Grande this Saturday morning. Our rescue team is already on the scene... So far we have confirmed eight deaths and two survivors," local governor Jorginho Melo said.
He said rescuers were searching for more people, as preliminary information indicated that there were 22 people on board. A video posted on social media showed a hot air balloon catching fire while in the sky. The balloon then bursts and falls to the ground.
That's why i never will enter at a gas balloon.
