While stuck in the tree, Huneycutt’s girlfriend – Alayna Dickerson – can be heard asking if he is OK.

‘No I’m good but man I’m s**t at paragliding,’ he says while laughing up in the tree. 

Huneycutt beats himself up over the snafu, telling himself that he should ‘know better.’  

‘If I had turned right, I would have been fine,’ he speculates as Dickerson rushes down to help pull the tangled parachute from the trees.
