The man who was reportedly a French soldier fell rapidly when the right side of his parachute was stuck on the roof. He dangled about 50 meters above the crowd that came to see Toulouse go on sales sharks.
Firefighters needed a long ladder to reach the parachute and safely save him. The man appeared unkind when he was helped down. The audience began to cheer when he reached security.
The firefighters also received a huge cheer when they were able to pull down the parachute.
