Horrifying moment hot air balloon crashes into high voltage powerlines leaving 3 dead

THIS is the horrifying moment a hot air balloon crashed into powerlines and killed all three on board. The balloon was left ripped to shreds before the basket burst into flames in Georgia. It was virtually destroyed in seconds as it hit a set of high voltage powerlines after it failed to reach a certain height to safely pass the lines. An unconfirmed report said the pilots were going to attempt to break a world record for the longest flight in a hot air balloon but the crash happened on one of the practise runs. The two pilots on board had struggled with the high winds throughout the flight as it appeared to be tricky to navigate as the balloon even touched the ground when flying over a field. It was also seen by onlookers getting blown wildly out of control and swaying all over the place before the tragic crash near the village of Asureti in eastern Georgia. Part of the burning balloon quickly dropped to the ground as the rest sat smoking and ablaze on the power line
