When you think of hot air balloon rides, you rarely associate them with epic fails. 

But, of course, life doesn't always go as planned and the fairytale version of things sometimes goes sideways. 

In this scenario, it was an epic fail for a woman who went on a hot air balloon ride. The woman happens to be Dr Moratwe Masima, a Miss SA Finalist from 2021. 

Masima shared a video on her TikTok showing her experience with a hot air balloon at Hartebeesport. 

But the winds picked up and the weather change caused them to have to land sooner than anticipated. 

This had further consequences as the hot air balloon hit a rock on the ground on landing, which caused the balloon to fall to the side.

And how typical of the story to feature an epic wig moment as well?! Don't mess with a woman and her wig. 

Masima shared in a follow-up video how it all went down and that even her wig came off.
