"I didn't see it" hardly seems like a good excuse for crashing into a Ferris wheel!

The pilot had just had to abort a landing at an airstrip very near where the little country show ( like your small county fairs) was on. With nose up attitude , yep, didn't see it. VERY lucky nobody got killed. The live interview - well to say he was embarrassed would be an understatement. Lesson one for learning to fly - keep a good watch and look for 'escape routes' should something go wrong.

I figured there was more to the story than just "I didn't see it"!

Rule #1 when flying a real aircraft is probably not much different than when flying R/C models... except when intentionally landing... always maintain an altitude a minimum of at least three mistakes up.
