So there you are paragliding in Oz - when 2 screeching eagles start ripping up your fabric wings - and then one gets tangled up and lashes at your face with its talons.
What to do?
Well, if you're "Britain's top female paraglider," you think through your options, keep going, and land.
The story says she was terrified while the feathered beasties were tearing up her wing, but it also sounds like she carefully thought about whether she ought to switch to her back up chute - and decided it was unwise.
How very British... she almost died,
But kept her cool while terrified.
