Now I've seen it all!

So, I'm reading the Portland Press Herald this morning, and read THIS STORY!

:???: Apparently this guy wants to tie a bunch of helium balloons to a Portland Pudgy, and fly across the Atlantic from Maine to Europe.

"...A North Carolina man plans to fly from Maine to Europe this summer in a particularly whimsical way: in a Maine-made dinghy held aloft by hundreds of helium-filled balloons. The solo flight would be the first-ever crossing of the Atlantic Ocean by a balloonist using cluster balloons..."

Kinda like a movie my kids watched a while ago.

Going to get quite cold I would imagine

They should invest in some more balloons and have a 36

I wonder when he told his parents what his calling was?

"Mom, Dad; Please sit down... I'd like to discuss what I want to do with my life..." :mrgreen:

I can see him flying over Georges bank and the rod & reel guys looking up and saying "fucking harpooners!"
