There’s an urban legend floating around about a guy who straps a bunch of ballons to a lawnchair to see if he’ll float in the air. When he cuts the lawnchair free, he shoots up in the air way to fast and dies of starvation and fright several miles up. Well, it’s officially been done. Kind of.
This dude here strapped scores of huge helium baloons to himself and documented the experience very well. There are some sweet pictures that you must check out! Here’s the site…
