     My one cousin performed many hundreds of sky dive; knew people who died doing it, but would much rather have died that way than die the way he did in a hospital after heart problems put him in a permanent comma from which he would have never recovered, so his brother pulled the plug.

     At that , hot air ballooning is supposed to be safe, although people have died doing it, I have never heard of the basket catching fire like this.
