Five people were killed when the basket of their hot air balloon plummeted to the ground in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The tragic fall to earth was caught on video.

The accident took place on Saturday morning. The Albuquerque Police Department said that the balloon appeared to hit a power line. Four people were killed when the basket hit the ground and a fifth was taken to hospital, where he later succumbed to his wounds.
