"I think possibly what had happened was that they left a brake on or something," he said.
Speaking later to London radio station LBC, he described himself as "the Yuri Gagarin of the zipwire", in reference to the Soviet cosmonaut who was the first person to venture into outer space.
A spokeswoman for Mr Johnson said: "Clearly the judges are likely to mark him down for artistic interpretation, and, unlike Team GB, he won't be bagging any gold medals today but he remains unbowed."

伦敦市长鲍里斯-约翰逊因为行事奇特和爱作秀著称,但最近这次出洋相肯定不是他计划好的。
约翰逊近日在奥运会区域的一个公园玩起了高空飞索,但不幸被卡在了20米的高空,还被英国一家报纸拍了下来。
约翰逊在众人的欢呼喝彩声中升空,但等待他的却是人们的笑声,因为他当时在众目睽睽之下停了下来,被卡在半空中。奥运主办城市的市长被卡在高空飞索的消息传出后,围观人群迅速多了起来。
约翰逊显然不太舒服,因为安全带拽起了他的西装裤子。但幸运的是这位伦敦市长曾经经历过尴尬的场面,他用轻松幽默的方式化解了当时的局面。
他对开心的观望人群说:“能给我一根绳索吗?”
