Apparently they tried this before.

Er, did they do this on Myth Busters? Cuz the other story about the guy who did this in a lawn chair was true, was it not?

Obviously not...

Strangely enough this is what I was going to post yesterday. Odd how things work out.

I've always wanted to try that. I'd do it away from the ocean though. Less swimming to get to shore and avoid nasty sharks and jellyfish.

So this stunt was intended to raise money for a charitable fund. Interesting.... but how much will the rescue effort cost?

Yes, they did that, and it was true. They also did one based on the popular cartoon gimmick of a child holding a bunch of party balloons and floating away. If I remember correctly, it took around 3500 balloons to lift a 4-year-old girl.

And it ripped her li'l arm out!! I mean, I'll have to watch that one.

That was another myth, something about carnival balloons and a small child. This one was done in an earlier show, where they place Adam in a lawn chair and lift him with weather balloons. He was equipped with a bb pistol to shoot the balloons and lower his altitude.

Isn't that what we said?

Oh, sorry. The constant projectile vomiting must be screwing with my head.

Hot. Now that's how to get chicks.

That's what I've been doing wrong. I'm trying to woo them with my personality, when I really should be spewing chicken soup on their faces. Thanks! [Big Grin]

Have you tried something as simple as "Faboo tits, let's fuck."?

Well this story reminds me of the ending to Kids in the Hall: Brain Candy.

Shik, you've obviously never seen what I look like...

That is true. I tend to focus my use of the World Panorama on the wimminz.
