DIY PLASTIC FILM WEATHER BALLOONS

[@Superkuh2]

Mis-spelling "baloons" in this title makes this video so hard to find in my youtube history or with any sort of youtube search. Every time the topic of methane as a lifting gas comes up in discussion I end up spending literally 10+ minutes scrolling through my history video by video trying to find it. It's only after I find it again and know the search for "baloons" I can find the copy already saved to my local computer. Insidious.

Lighting that thing would sure be spectacular

[@apewithacomputer1897]

thanks for the video my hamster is going to be a astronaut thanks to you.

[@rickharriss]

What gas did you fill with?

[@AdamWebb1982]

methane

[@roidroid]

Huh, ive never heard of Methane used as lifting gas before.

[@ianbuilder]

i like to think outside the box, granted this is probably breaking many stupid laws

[@Anontesla]

With methane, how would it do with hydrogen it’s easy enough to create

[@Zomby_Woof]

Should have used hydrogen. More than double the lift. Dry cleaning bags make nice smaller ballons. They are just big enough to launch on hot air alone

[@unauthorized-e2z]

Can I buy similar diy weather baloons from you, how much will it cost as compared to traditional weather baloons available.?

[@ianbuilder]

Regular weather balloons are crazy expensive, I could sell them at i want to say 1/2 or 1/4 cost email me, [e-mail]

[@phluxspruentgen4561]

Shoot it with your ferrocerium spark gun at night XD

[@ianbuilder]

That would be insanely cool, I have no place to do it tho

[@FishOnIsMyHandle]

You could write step-by-step procedure manuals for the military (and NASA)

[@georgeaura]

Pretty cool

[@adityachouhan1533]

I solved world problems*

[@mousaey]

I wonder how many pounds it would lift full of hydrogen.

[@ianbuilder]
