One of the UK's top paragliders was killed when he crashed into overhead power cables shortly after ringing his fiancée from the air and asking her to come outside and watch him land near their home, an inquest heard. Leanna Bishop went into the garden of her home and looked up as Wayne Seeley, 41, descended towards the local school playing field in Eastington, near Stonehouse, Gloucestershire, in June 2020. But she was then horrified to see his harness touch the 11,000-volt cables, the Gloucester inquest was told. She saw sparks fly from his harness, followed by a large bang and a cloud of smoke.
