So what was his plan for coming down? Did he have a peashooter or BB gun to pop one balloon at a time?
some guy in Az or California did that years ago., strapped about 20 or more weather ballons to a lawn chair, and took off with a pellet gun so he could shoot them to control his height
but, he dropped it. whoops,
evenutally he came back down, got arrested and wound up on the tonight show, or Letterman. his 15 minutes of fame.
