Man floats 193 miles using chair, balloons
Oregon resident fulfills childhood dream with 105 helium balloons


Updated: 2 hours, 33 minutes ago
BEND, Ore. - 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.

Destination: Idaho.

With instruments to measure his altitude and speed, a global positioning system device in his pocket, and about four plastic bags holding five gallons of water each to act as ballast — he could turn a spigot, release water and rise — Couch headed into the Oregon sky.

Up, in the atmosphere,
Up, where the air is clear,
Oh, let's go...

My Name is Kent, and I like a woman who never wants to settle down.
One who likes to travel, and get high.

Float, float on.
Float on, float on.
