Let us worry about what we'll have to do to talk you into it. You just make sure you tell us how much you weigh, so we know how many balloons to fill.

Well, now that we know you way 96, I must ask you what color of parachute you would like?

Options:

Aqua
USA Flag
Red Bull Logo
Rainbow
Solid Blue

Thanks.

Alright, all we need to do now is chip in for helium.

To be honest, i don't think a parachute would work at that low of an altitude... I mean... Great idea!

I say just strap a big pillow to your ass so if you fall it won't hurt that bad, hell Silver, I'll throw in 5 bucks to buy you a 24 foot roll of bubble wrap that you can cover your body with.

silver and cold · 07-10-2003, 05:37 PM

If you think I'm gonna help pay for you guys to send me in to the sky your crazy, yeah, it would be fun, but I dont trust you guys with my life.

Ugly Bastard · 07-10-2003, 05:41 PM

Alpha, she'll be floating at at least 5,000 feet, not 30.

silver and cold, I want a "Yes" or "No" from you in your next post in this thread as to whether you're going to do this or not...we need to know.

Dear God...

silver and cold · 07-10-2003, 05:48 PM

No.
Your crazy!You and Alpha both!!!!
And thanks but, Alpha, but I really don't think the bubble wrap would do much good, even though it is really fun to pop.

sim_flex_x · 07-10-2003, 05:51 PM

this thread really makes me laugh, especially the bubble wrap part

silver, i really think you should do this, cuz now Ugly's asking me to do it if you won't, however, i weigh a bit more than you do, so i don't think it'll work...

What day is good for you?

Alpha · 07-10-2003, 06:02 PM

Silver and Sim, think about the possiblities, besides making the local news, there is a damn good chance that you will make it on CNN for your own 30 or 45 second segment.
Not to mention you will be able to say you did something that no one has ever done before.

Ugly Bastard · 07-10-2003, 06:06 PM

sim_flex_x-

Your adventure will start on the ground, where you will be strapped to 1200 helium filled balloons. I'm thinking if 100 balloons could lift about a 10lb turkey, then 1200 balloons could lift about a 120lb girl (these are just estimates, of course we will be more exact when the time rolls around).

The real danger zone is from 10 feet-2,000 feet. This is the zone where if you fall off of the lawn chair that we are going to tie you to, your parachute will not have enough time to deploy.

Once you get above 2,000 feet, you are home-free to the best ride of your life. At about, 7,000 feet or so, we will ask you via radio to jump from your lawn chair, where you will free fall for approximately 15 seconds. After these 15 seconds, you will pull your rip-cord, and have a gentle 10 minute glide back to ground. Of course, we will escort you via walky-talky while you are gliding down under your canopy.

Looks fun, doesn't it? Alright...just let us know when.

-Ugly Bastard

silver and cold · 07-10-2003, 06:09 PM

Hahaha you do have a good point there, Alpha.

sim_flex_x · 07-10-2003, 06:18 PM

that's hilarious ugly :]
however I still vote Silver does it, she's lighter which means less helium, less chance of falling out of the chair, and then i wouldn't have to do it
plus she jumped off a house, come on silver, this would just be a little bit higher!

I'll take that as a "yes". So what day would you like to do this, sim?

haha, I really dont think I want to either....you should try mailbu! She might!! And I know, I've done stupid things involing falling before, but this is alot higher, and considering UB and Alpha will probably be head of sending me off, its worries me even more

sim_flex_x · 07-10-2003, 06:31 PM

I hear you on that one silver. I don't know if i want to put my life in their hands

granted it'd be fun to make the news for flying over the town attatched to helium balloons, but i can see me running into power lines or something...hey ugly, why don't we send you up?

Options:

Aqua
USA Flag
Red Bull Logo
Rainbow
Solid Blue

and i can throw in forest green

silver and cold · 07-10-2003, 06:31 PM

UB, where did you find that picture???

Ugly Bastard · 07-10-2003, 06:31 PM

sim-

Thanks for agreeing to go. Since you can't seem to agree on a date, we will pick a date for you. Someone will pick you up at your house, and escort you to Edgewood Middle School's football field. That's the launch area. We'll need a lot of open space for 1200 balloons.

Someone bring string.

-Ugly Bastard

silver and cold · 07-10-2003, 06:35 PM

I like sim's idea UB, you should go, I promise I wouldn't let anything happen to you!
