Man Straps 105 Balloons to His Lawn Chair and Flies Away

baloonman Man Straps 105 Balloons to His Lawn Chair and Flies AwayWhen I was just a wee Chicklet, and someone would give me a balloon, I would dream of floating away in to the clouds with it. Apparently I wasn’t the only one thinking along those lines. Kent Couch took that childhood sentiment into his adulthood. The 47 year old strapped 105 large helium balloons to his lawn chair and went on a 193 mile flight three miles above the ground. We’re not sure what is the craziest part of the story - that a man flew 193 miles with balloons or that this guy’s last name is Couch. (Source: ABC Boston)
