With all the attention the Balloon Boy has gotten, you might be surprised to learn that many people, both young and old, have been making and launching their own hot air balloons for ages.

  • What are the chances? This homemade hot air balloon video just so happens to feature Eliot's favorite song of all time. Who doesn't love Mrs. Miller?


  • Look at these kids. They're having a great time. It's good clean fun. Absolutely no one here is doing anything for the show.


  • There's a part of me that thinks launching a flaming garbage bag towards a major city isn't the best idea, but it seems to have worked out.


  • This video has everything: Suspense, a homemade hot air balloon, and The Final Countdown.


  • Not only does this guy launch his colorful tissue paper hot air balloon, he also teaches you how to make your own.
