I’m so confused. What was challenging about this? I thought he would be Atleast holding on to the balloons. He’s harnessed to them. This was a guy riding a hot air ballon to 25,000 and sky diving down.

Yeah I was pretty disappointed, Not sure what the challenge or risk was. Or was there some magic that I missed?

Maybe the Magic was him getting paid to do a fun little stunt. poof the money is gone. LOL

Cant believe all the money and resources to do this.
