Yeah it's real. The blimp was doing a test run before it was supposed to fly over the AFC Championship game in Oakland when a gust of wind caused the pilot to lose control. It wandered aimlessly for a few miles before crashing into a fish and chips shack...

For a few miles worth of travel he couldn't regain control? Wow, is it that hard control those suckers? SHouldn't much harder the driving my grandfathers old Caddy, lmao.

The pilot bailed. The blimp was all by itself...
