YOUR 15 MINUTES: Crazy Floats

Last weekend, Kent Couch settled down in his lawn chair with some snacks -- and a parachute. Attached to his lawn chair were 105 large helium balloons. This dude traveled 193 miles - in a LAWN CHAIR attached to balloons. ARE YOU LISTENING?!

By the way, Kent is a gas station owner. I'm not sure what, if anything, you can infer from that, but I figured you should know.

"When you're a little kid and you're holding a helium balloon, it has to cross your mind," Couch told the Bend Bulletin.
