I was talking to Radu the other day about helium baloons.
Here's what we covered :D
1982 - this guy survives (uses 45 weather baloons), pays a $1500 FAA fine, later on, he shot himself and die @ age 44
2008 - the baloon priest - Adelir Antonio de Carli, 41, was attempting to set the world record for clustered balloon flight to publicize his plan to build a spiritual rest stop for truckers. He took a GPS w/ him. He died, because he didn't know how to use the GPS. (double darwin award :D)
And I looked up what do you need to do if you only have "regular" baloons. If you are 45 kg-s, you would need 3571. Damn! I'd need 5900+ to lift me !
