up, up, up and away!

here's a world record that i bet you've never heard of...
the record for most hours flying with balloons is set at 19 hours. like my previous post about records, how would you figure out that THIS was the record you wanted to set?

well for one brazilian priest (because you know, that's what brazilian priests are known for - flying with balloons... didn't you know?), breaking that record might be a career-culminating feat.

"Brazilian priest carried away by balloons; missing"

dude was trying to raise money for a spiritual rest-stop for truckers in paranagua... i mean, i'm all for showy displays of grandeur but don't you think like a bake sale would have been a better idea?
