Its funny, the TV show "Myth Busters" tried this one and found that it
did not work, they decided it must be a myth. Later they found out it
was real. Odd that these guys couldn't figure out how to get the lift
required of the ballons.


They failed to catapult a man from a manlift on one of their shows also, and
claimed to have disproven it. But I had a close friend who died that way.
