Not really random given most people interact with helium in the form of a balloon, however I would say that no one on Earth could comprehend 1.4 trillion balloons.
- latchkey 5y agoAre they big or small party balloons?
- HappyDreamer 5y agoAssuming medium size, then, @giarc: > I would say that no one on Earth could comprehend 1.4 trillion balloons Consider this: If everyone on the planet got 1 party balloon every month, we'd deplete that helium source in about 10 years.
- twic 5y agoThe song '99 Luftballoons' / '99 Red Balloons' was released 38 years ago, and sold 2,866,500 certified copies. If everyone who bought a copy listened to it twice a week since it came out, and released 99 balloons every time they did, they would have released 1.1 trillion ballons.

- dorkwood 5y agoHow much rubber is there?
- 11thEarlOfMar 5y agoIt's hard to quantify, because the market is so elastic.
- catlikesshrimp 5y agoEven saying that is a stretch
- dtgriscom 5y agoThat's 1.4 x 10^12. So, it's a cube of balloons a bit over 10,000 balloons on a side. If the balloons are 1' cubes, then the whole assembly is about two miles on a side. Quite a party.
