Of course, you remember the story of Larry Walters,
the guy who went up in the sky (16,000 feet) in his lawn chair attached to hundreds of balloons, and to descend, shot
them down one by one with a BB gun, but not before having his location radioed to the control tower by a passing
airliner. Well, now meet cluster balloonist John Ninomiya who
has taken up the cluster ballooning baton and is running with it. Ninomiya says he is the only regularly active cluster
balloonist in North America, and says he has completed more cluster flights than anyone in the world. Love it. You go,
dude.
