TMZ Sports has confirmed the pilot made it out of the blimp but suffered injuries. We’re told the pilot suffered burns on his face and has pain in his neck and lower back.
The blimp landed in a remote field with no direct road access. Emergency responders were instructed to take ATVs to get to the crash site.

A PenFed blimp deflated, burst into flames and crashed late Thursday morning near the U.S. Open at Erin Hills.
The blimp went down about 11:20 a.m. near Highway 83 and Highway 167.
One person – presumably the pilot – was transported by Flight for Life from the area of the crash just after noon.
