Yet another item to add to my "Things to do before I'm pushing up bubbles" list:

John Ninomiya cloud hopping over Bear Hill Pond, Harvard, Massachusettes

"Gee whiz, " you might say, "..it's just another hot air balloon." But if you look closely, you'll see that there's no gonodola. The guy's dangling directly from the balloon, with 15 gallons of fuel strapped to his back. On land, he can bound 20 - 40 feet at a time.

That's so cool.

Wierd. I had a dream about doing that when I was a kid, but there was no fuel or anything. I guess I wasn't concerned about the practicalities when I was seven or eight years old...

Just me, hanging from a hot-air balloon, taking huge leaps and bounds across the countryside. I don't remember much about the dream.

My balloon was blue, so people didn't see me. I think I woke up when the balloon ripped.
