A Sacramento Santa flew – and crashed – when his paraglider flew into power lines. Santa was rescued after Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District cut through the red tape of power lines near Seventh Avenue in Rio Linda, according to the Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District.
The man was rescued just after 1:30 p.m. and was not injured, Vestal said. The cause of the crash is under investigation.

The man, dressed as Santa, was delivering candy canes to children in the neighborhood when he got stuck after 11 a.m., according to Capt. Chris Vestal. Photos shown on social media show the man riding a paramotor, a harness and glider powered by a small engine and fan.
No reindeer were injured as a result of this paragliding accident, but perhaps next time he can use a Ladder truck like FDNY.
