Hunting Hydrogen Balloons with Fireworks
- rosstafarian 16y agoholy crap that's cool, the nes music at the end makes it the awesomest thing ever.
- jpadilla 16y agoI would definitely want one of those!
- mason55 16y agoMy friend was at a school gathering in India and didn't realize that the balloons had been filled with hydrogen instead of helium (save on costs?). He went to pop one with a lighter and the whole bunch of 70 went up in flames and burned the hell out of his body. Moral of the story... be careful with hydrogen balloons.
- fizx 16y agoTry acetylene. More fun/scary.
- iwwr 16y agoSo were they human-controlled or autonomous?
- biot 16y agoThe end of the video shows "Pilot: David Windestal". The video from the sentry with its target rectangle makes it appear that it could have been autonomous, though that could have been added after.
- zizee 16y agoGood to see someone channelling their inner child and really enjoying themselves! The footage reminded me of this article: http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/2010/12/how-a-rc-airplane-buzzed-the-statue-of-liberty-with-no-arrests.ars http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/2010/12/how-a-rc-airplane... I really want to get a setup like this. Looks like the closest thing to being able to fly! p.s: Love the 8bit arcade music.
