Canberra Kayakers Get Conked In The Coconut

Generally speaking, a kayak is typically pretty safe from having a run-in with an aircraft. However, during a balloon festival in Canberra, Australia, a pair of kayakers found themselves in the path of a hot air balloon looking to do a quick touch-and-go in the body of water the kayak was in. Despite being walloped in the melon by the wicker gondola of the balloon, the kayakers were pretty good natured about the whole thing.
