BEIJING: A paraglider in China who intended to simply test some equipment instead ended up reaching barely survivable heights last week.
Peng Yujiang, a 55-year-old paraglider in Gansu province, early on May 24 flew nearly 8,600m above sea level in the Qilian mountain range of north-west China’s Qinghai and Gansu provinces, according to state media.
