This was Kent Couch's third balloon-powered lawn chair flight. His lawn chair, powered by a rainbow of more than 150 helium-filled party balloons, flew more than 200 miles from central Oregon to Idaho.
Couch created quite a sensation in the tiny farming community of Cambridge, Idaho, as he touched down safely in a pasture where he was soon greeted by dozens of the town’s very surprised residents!!
This article includes a number of great photographs, as well as five remarkable videos (two of his 2007 flight and three of his successful 2008 flight), music audio (The Fifth Dimension's "Up, Up, and Away") and a terrific gallery of photographs showing Couch and his balloon-powered lawn chair in flight.
Have a look and enjoy yourself!!
