Interesting clip of an emergency situation of an ultralight with engine failure.
I thought the pilot did an excellent job getting lined up on a nearby road with little in the way of options, especially over dense woodland.
'Cathy' wasn't impressed but I'll put that down to shock. It could of been so much worse.

I suffer from paranoid amnesia. I can't remember who I don't trust.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.

Woo!
That space looked too narrow for the wingspan, looked like they clipped the trees on the stbd after landing.
