Is it safe for someone with a heart condition to go hang gliding?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cardio doc to clear: ...You for take off. There are so many different heart conditions, some very benign like a mitral valve prolapse, to very dangerous like heart failure or heart block. Do not hang glide until you and your cardiologist have figured out exactly what you have, how it may affect your consciousness, and ability to hang glide safely. Good luck.
