THIS is the bizarre moment a paraglider gets attacked by a kangaroo after safely landing.
Jonathan Bishop stuck the landing after gliding for two hours above Namadgi National Park's Orroral Valley, just outside Canberra, Australia when he saw two kangaroos hopping towards him.5Footage taken on the 35-year-old’s GoPro shows one charging directly at him while he was still connected to his equipment.
Bishop mistakenly thought it was friendly roo prancing towards him and can be heard saying: “What’s up Skip?”Bishop can be seen trying to defending himself but because he is still attached to his gliding equipment he is no match for the brave animal. Bishop can be heard saying "Ah, f***ing kangaroos!" as the bold roo leaps away joining its companion.
The Australians Airforce member was able to escape the encounter uninjured before walking several kilometres to get reception to call a friend to come get him.
