I decidedly want to try out this glass - fathom hot air balloon , even while its fender and discoverer says it ’s a “ terrifying experience . ” I do n’t know why no other sadist think about this before , but flying in it must be truly blood - curdling .
The meth - bottomed hot air balloon is the macrocosm of Christian Brown , the pilot who travelled around the world in a balloon with Sir Richard Branson . Brown , who has been raging air travel balloon original for 18 years and deem the tethered altitude populace book at 10,000 feet , tell the experience of flying this raw airship was terrifying . Knowing his previous experience , I consider him :
We ’ve done tethered trials before , which usually terminate with passengers pipe up and screaming in fear , but this is the first time we ’ve actually taken to the skies unaided . Ordinarily , you would look over the bound of the field goal to peer at the ground below but there is something very discomfit about seeing it right beneath your foot .
He tried it for it first maiden flight during the 2010 Bristol International Balloon Fiesta . Brown added the experience “ certainly is n’t for the faint - hearted . ” The balloon has been designed to fly over the Alps , where “ it would give unbelievable views of the scene below . ”
Click to viewHaving flown in a non - glass - bottom hot air balloon myself , I sleep with I would pant and in all likelihood cry for my mum on this one . But I really , really , really ca n’t waitress for next year , where it will be available to the public . The experience must be genuinely terrifying and surreal . [ SWNS ]
