The International Balloon Festival is an icon in the city of León, Guanajuato, Mexico. It is currently positioned as one of the 3 most important worldwide. However some accidents happen just like this one when a hot-air balloon crashed into the roof of a house and knocked down a structure that was positioned on the chimney. |

Could have been worse. At least it wasn't power lines. Pretty strong wind to be ballooning in. |

"Cheeeeee" must mean damn. They start rapidly ascending right after hitting the chimney. They were this close to not hitting anything, lol. Also I do believe that "structure" was just a part of the chimney. |
