The funny thing about that is he still feels it was a good decision.

Hilarious!
I was ******** up reading this, trying to imagine the speed of ascent and just 'sitting around' at such a height.

I gotta have a go at that!!

Me too. This one had me in tears picturing him up there, floating around, eating sandwiches, chatting on his C.B. radio. :) I very much love the part where he had originally imagined the thing drifting lazily up to about 30 feet and then hovering there for a few hours.

One can only speculate at his friends who untethered him. :)

On the other hand it really makes you realize that we're much more limited by what people say we can do than reality. I like the underlying message that the "impossible" is not what it seems.

Yep, that's the site from the link above, great material. Truly hilarious some of it. I bought one of their books in a book store last week and that's how I discovered it. These books make great reading when you don't have time for more than a few pages. Overpriced though...
