Just a bit of humour (balloon man in Brazil)

Post by starlifterfan »

If anyone one is flying around the coast of Brazil keep your eyes open for a guy floating around with helium balloons....won't be surprised if someone will design a balloon guy floating around with animated balloons!!!,.If you have not heard apparently a preist in Brazil wanted to break a record for flying with balloons,last reports are that he is still confirmed unaccounted for although they did find some balloons in the water off the coast but he has not been found,and they do say he had a gps device with him....

The really sad thing is that one of his last sat phone calls was to ask if they could get someone on line to teach him how to use the gps, so that he could tell potential rescuers his current location.

You can't prevent the poor unfortunate ignorant adventurers from doing stupid things, but in the end really large amounts of someone else's money is spent to try and return these guys to safety, and lives are at risk while doing so. I hope they find this guy, but it don't look good!
