Hot air balloons are known to be the oldest successful human flight technology. While they didn't grow into our main form of transportation, they certainly have evolved as a huge fascination and in this case fun inspiration for a little project.
This video shows how to make one with a produce bag, balsa wood and birthday candles. It costs less than a dollar and comes together in just a few minutes. You could have a little fun with your neighbors, pretending there is a UFO in the sky. Sightings have been reported after seeing these things floating around! They might also make a spooky Halloween project.
This isn't something for the kids. This is pure adult fun. As the video warns, make sure you keep it away from the house and any dry grass.
