We get excited and fascinated by incredible stunts in movies which ultimately is grounded on fiction. But imagine having the chance to see just a fragment of those feats in real life.
A British man, Tom Morgan has stunned the internet community by using a just a chair suspended from 100 helium balloons to move across the skies of South Africa.
According to report, Morgan flew 25km (15.5 miles) and reached as high as 8,000ft (2,438m. After a series of trial runs in Botswana with many setbacks from strong winds, he finally took a lift-off above Johannesburg.
The video of his exciting journey has gone viral. Depending on this test run, the company plans to host a helium balloon race in 2018.
He told Mirror, UK:
It was a fairly indescribable feeling, wafting across Africa on a cheap camping chair dangling from a load of balloons.
