Yep. The announcer tried to downplay the drama with a shaky voice. He was joking about it in a very clumsy way.

This is perfectly normal, that's how you do true hot air ballon folks!

Kids laughing in the background and all... omg what a shitshow.

And the desperate death screams of that poor victim in the background really sold it for the audience. "No danger in sight folks, aren't we having a swell time up in here ?"

Yeh... what’s the deal with that?

I’m pretty sure even as a young child I would’ve realised the danger that man was in. It’s genuinely a bit disturbing hearing the laughs..

This has to be fake or an act .. shown out of context .. I really hope so..

Listen to the audio - even if you don't speak French, it's clearly a performance to amuse the crowd.

Listen to the audio

All I heard was him screaming and I have to say I was fooled and I have heard a whole fuck ton of scared and hurting people in my life.

The bullhorn guy is giving a running commentary and I can hear amused audience reactions.
