A tourist and her instructor die when their ultralight dives to the ground

Two people died after their hang glider fell to earth in smoke as horrified onlookers looked on.

Tourist Anna Kozyreva, 43, and her instructor, who has not been identified, were enjoying the mountains of the Adygea region when gliders suddenly fell to the ground "like a stone" in Russia yesterday.< /p>

The woman had paid for a flight to visit the stunning mountains, but her dream experience went tragically wrong when she and her instructor fell from the sky at frightening speeds.

The Russian Investigative Committee said that the pilot did not have a flight license or the right to offer paid services.

According to experts, there was a wing problem on the powered glider that caused the hang glider to emit smoke as the couple slumped to their deaths.

The video and images capture the moment the hang gliders fall to the ground as a fire breaks out in the wreckage.

Tragically, the couple were pronounced dead after falling to the ground (
