Do you know how in cartoons you watched growing up as a kid there was always a character who would get caught in a kite string or something and get lifted up into the air? Impossible, right?
WRONG!
Because that very thing happened at a festival in Taiwan where a three-year-old somehow got herself tangled in a rather long kite and was lifted dozens of feet into the air. Yes, she’s safe, so watch the video guilt-free:

According to Bloomberg, she was “more than 30 feet in the air”:
