A 50-year-old man fell with his paraglider on the newest church in Plovdiv - the Church of St. Archangels in the Old Town. The man was not injured and refused medical attention, reports BNR Plovdiv. 

The pilot explained to the police that his paramotor had a technical malfunction. There was no damage to the roof of the church. "God gave us a good sign. It's a miracle he saved himself on the roof of the church!", Sophie, a tourist from Friench, told BNT.
