National Geographic Channel have created a real-life version of the animated film Up — launching a house thousands of metres into the air using 300 helium weather balloons. A team of scientists, engineers, and two world-class balloon pilots successfully launched a 16' X 16' house 18' tall with 8' colored weather balloons from a private airfield east of Los Angeles, and set a new world record for the largest balloon cluster flight ever attempted. Happy Friday!
