This sounds pretty bizarre. Have to wonder if they just heard gunshots and thought they were getting shot at.

I hear them all the time around our place and never give it a second thought. Well except I know the assclowns are shooting in a restricted area and would be gone before the sheriffs office located them. 😳

They could hear a large wooden mallet slamming down trying to ring a bell up a pole in the background.

This evidently happened in north Texas, and not near the border. So I’m not sure of my guess. But maybe the balloon drifted over a cartel operation. Those guys don’t particularly like sightseers.

Doubt it. Sounds like they were trying to cover their a$$es for some poor flying. Nobody else heard the shots or reported shooting.

This appears to have been outside of Crandall, which is southeast of Dallas. Not a bad area unless you drift a little closer to the urban squalor. Little Guadalajara awaits you followed by Little Zaire.

Ah, I see... They are foreigners (Poland). You know what Europeans hear about Americans.
He says he was worried that someone might shoot at their balloon.
Maybe they heard someone shooting at a firing range and panicked.

That will make a great story to tell the grandkids when they recover enough to return to Poland. By then, it won’t just be bullets being fired by unseen adversaries, it will include cannonballs, maybe even Sea Monsters!
