The blimp caught fire and crashed at the US Open. The crew had to parachute out. https://t.co/nVAghYUe7x

The blimp crash was far from the course but the smoke that rose above the trees afterwards was terrifying.

FOX Sports 1 later reported that the blimp was unaffiliated with the U.S. Open and that the pilot was being treated. The network also shared some footage of the blimp appearing to explode after it landed on the ground:
