In another video about her experience, Liberty said: "I didn't realise when you get into a hot air balloon it's not upright, you lie on the floor to get in.
"So you're actually not strapped in, nothing, you only have this tiny bit of rope to hold, as the hot air balloon goes up, the basket just sits up," she went on.
"But as you come down, you have to go the other way, so we were told to basically just hold onto this rope and sit and almost do like a wall sit, crouch down to land.
"However, I don't know if that landing was normal, because we were getting knocked left, right, up, down.
"Like it was so chaotic, I don't know if every single hot air balloon lands like that cause to me that's not right.
"Why are people go on a hot air balloon if that happened all the time?"
Liberty concluded: "I'm just glad we survived to be honest.'"
