I'd really like to see him go 30,000 feet like he said it will if he didn't pop a balloon every once and a while.

Thats still a badass way to travel! I do worry that we may now get illegal immigrants floating in over the border.

This was Couch's third balloon flight. He realized it would be possible after watching a TV show about the 1982 lawn chair flight over Los Angeles of truck driver Larry Walters, who gained folk hero fame but was fined $1,500 for violating air traffic rules.
Didn't the Mythbusters tell this jerkoff not to try anythign they do at home??

Season 1, Episode 3.

This nut lives near me. He drives a Corvette with an automatic no less----has got to be gey. I parked along his route out in the Oregon desert with my 30-.06 but couldn't get a good shot.
