I am putting some serious consideration to tying enough helium filled balloons to myself or a chair (with me on) to try achieve flight, maybe even Atlantic crossing ,might make it to us b4 Sunday,lol. But seriously it's something I've seen and since then can't stop thinking bout it,want to film the whole thing good or bad, YouTube it, who knows might be able to get some sort of publicityand money from it, anyone ever wanted to do something similar,like fill swimming pool with custard and walk across it?

I wonder how the jackass guys first started doing their stunts ? I wonder if they were group of friends that had silly ideas such as this and pursued them and the career(publicity) followed orwhether the publicity/career wasthe motivation? And could u do what they do? I know everyone says hell yeah I'd do that for the sort of money they get! But it's easy to say, and alot diff when u have your ball sackon the table and your mate has the staple gun....? Or the dirty Sanchez guys ,some of the filth they do us real nasty,bordering homosexual masochism pornography....myself I could not do half of what they do

It will take thousands of balloons to lift a person sitting on a chair

Hmmm, maybe we take Away the chair ,lol....maybe I start with my 1 yr old son....lol,only kidding. Yeah I remember it wads shit load of balloons, buyt that's the plus side, I have as many balloons as needed free of charge,just need a estimate on helium tanks. I know it sounds crazy and I probably am, but I am actually quite serious about doing it,even if takes long time in preparation planning etc, don't know why I want to do it so much but the idea just won't go away

I'm pretty sure there was a myth busters on this or maybe even braniac? Anyway it took a stupid amount

There were 2. One with normal sized balloons, the other with massive like 10 foot balloons. It took something insane like 26,000 balloons to lift a 50 lb little girl, but only 10 or so MASSIVE balloons to lift a small adult

Jackass started with CKY (camp kill yourself). It was all Skaters doing awesome trils mixed with jackass style shit. Them Johnny noxville showed up and started jackass. Most of the skaters you see on jackass were part of cky (including bam). If you think about it, by the time you hit pro skater status you've beat the snot out of your body and know how to take pain...so they are conditioned to do these "stunts". Don't float across the ocean on a balloon chair...that's silly. But if you do aim for nova scotia, I'll come pick you up amd show you around the east coast of Canada!
