Two parachutists delivering the match ball landed safely on the pitch at the Stade de Toulouse, ahead of Sale's Champions Cup tie against Toulouse, but their colleague went off course and was left dangling from the roof after their parachute got snagged in the awning.

He misjudged his approach and turned too late! Most jumpers that make demo jumps into stadiums have thousands of total jumps and usually hundreds of stadium demo jumps.
Glad they got him down safely and I’ll bet he was embarrassed beyond comprehension.
