Balloon Fiesta spectator captures collapse of radio tower

[@jarniwoop]

Rather surprising that a hot air ballon has enough mass to knock over a radio tower of that size.

[@tvviewer4500]

Why? Are you aware of inertia?

[@ralphoborn5015]

It clipped and cut a guy wire.

If a radio tower falls in the distance, does it make a noise?

[@MustachioFurioso9134]

Hi KRQE, I have additional video showing the moment the balloon hit the tower and the collapse. I'd be happy to share!

Brad witnessed it live from 16 miles away!

A balloon event next to radio towers? Really?

[@TheDylanJoyce]

Poor Tower... I wish it didn't have to collapse. I would rather it was just left alone.

Who thought it was a great idea to launch balloons so close to towers ? Makes no logical sense whatsoever.

[@TheUnholyPosole]

Those GD balloons are getting outta hand. Buncha rookies fkn up.

Don't go to Oshkosh then...the balloons atleast rarely cause deaths... Oshkosh, every year there's a death from the pilots in their airplanes and helicopters
