The maiden voyage of the world's only glass-bottomed hot air balloon

[boom10123]

nice video :-)

[14omega28ok]

I would be scared of some punk ass with a BB gun

[ItsRyanStudios]

@14omega28ok

A hot air balloon can still fly if it has a hole that is as big as a person, as long as it's not on top

[SmokeRingsPipeDreams]

This is my worst nightmare!

[Iwincuzusuk]

HOLY SHIT A SQUARE BALLOON!!!!

[aniorange]

why does this remind me of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory?

[aniorange]

oh hell no

[niflap]

Must be a PLEXIglass bottom boat. It seemed to hold out pretty good through that landing

[galaxiecowboy]

How these two top comments got to be the top comments for the past 8 months, I have no idea.

[MrSn95guy]

bet u that bitch got a weight limit lol i have heard of racism and sexism what about fatism

[CocacolaCowboy1919]

@MrSn95guy Would be weightism

[afabandjon]

i love the way the passenger is scared to stand in the middle

[ASHBOX86]

this video made me throw up in fear!

[killerinstinct1337]

i'd be scared shitless.

[TheWwweee]

earth hour 60min

[aivzdog]

Wow pretty cool. But I dont know if I could do that because I am scared of heights!

[hiddenangel89]

WTF!... its pointless to do that... 80% of the view to the "glass-bottom" is covered by people and bags! =)

[06mourag]

Its what I call 'Real Time Google maps' :)

[RomanTribunusBrando]

While they're looking down they don't see the power-lines they are going to hit.

[balonfan]

whouww! that's crazy! greetings from the Netherlands!

[joewarar12]

*crack*



[TheProductionPure]

"a little bounce bend your knees"  *hot air balloon lands* "ohh f@#k i think we landed a wee bit to hard because we flipped this bitch"

[sok213]

i dont trust that

[akulabite]

too bad there is no place to sit down inside the cabin.

[dcanaday426]

@hxcAlexx booo..no one likes a hater. he was funny, your response wasnt...

[HigherPlanes]

Does anybody know how hot air balloons navigate?

[cameren23]

@HigherPlanes they have flaps on the sides and wires that run down to the cab and when you pull them the air is releaed very quick and moves it

[survivoraries]

if u just want to have view why not taking camera and look outside the bucket

[aserher215]

I've done this plenty of times and I LOVE IT!

[teetson2]

hellllllllllllllllllllllllllll­lllllllllllllllllllllllllll no.

[iEple]

I would be like: Omfg i hope the glass won't crack :S

[lmg800]

lmao the  ending looks stupid as hell

[HotBlueLightning]

mean while in Africa a child dies tragicly

[AgujaAzulMD]

What's the point of a glass bottom, I mean, couldn't they just, you know... look over the side of the basket?

[RamirArcega24]

I wanna puke in front of my computer.....why did I have to watch this after getting drunk.......my decision-making skills suck....

[cheguebera]

im scared for them hah

[SLeNdaLiLLa]

AT THE END..."A bit of a bounce,bend your knees bend your knees bend your knees"..*CRASH*....Did they survive??.Ya like that really makes anyone want to go on one now!

[cvmango]

crack clock crack clock......arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh arghhhhhhhhhhhhh....30s later cplahhhhh

[DUI405]

when does the glass break ? ...

[IdiotPerspective]

No way you're gonna get me in that thing! O_O

[dsan89dk]

I don't get it, why not use bigger baskets ? so that theres room for people.

[nemssiki]

anticlimactic.

[erklott1]

the random burst of 5 foot flames killed the peaceful/dramatic theme the music was going for

[TheHauptsturmfuhrer]

How far back from the canvas does the artist stand; to see the mistakes so far,

and once encountered within his view,can changes be made without a scar

What created his point of view;long before he found an outlet to show his means,

and if he makes the need changes,does it improve or just shatter it to smithereens

All our hopes and ambitions are within the limits that come apart in our dreams,

and those who dare to exceed these limits; must live their life to these extremes

[theguigo]

why such a harsh landing?..

[kratos255255]

Your risking ppls live's, when u could just look over the side! Whats the point looking through the bottom anyways? the view is better looking over the basket! Lol

[luke666808g]

@kratos255255 you don't know the specifications of the glass, it's maximum load could be 2-3 tons or something, or just 4-5 morbidly obese people, in which case who cares if they die.

[mrmakemakkara]

very nice

[SolidKrycha]

Did thay alived?

[juhku1995]

yeah the twogirls one cup music .D

[Fishyboiboi]

its aa long way down.

[lanious2]

0:39 - wooooooooooaawww ...its amazing. . .

[Soooooooooooonicable]

I wonder what they would do if they started to hear a faint cracking noise.

[Jenli666]

i would like to go on it but id be fucking scared XD

[XequlixX]

hmmm... hay mister hot air balloon diver man. couldn't i just look over the side of this here balloon basket if i wanted to see what was below us

balloon diver man: no

[sabrocks881]

@XequlixX its not about looking to the side! I would shit myself if i look thousands of feet down the glass while standing on it. Its scary! i think thats the point of the glass!

[asihinerice04]

fuck. . . that

[blindbumblbee]

see that spot on the glass over there thats where my barf would be

[KhailAnonymous]

You can get the get the same view from Google Earth. Kinda cheaper.

[Xjectivity]

:: The world is going to be ruled by Bilderberg group, Skull and bones, CFR fully ! and we are going to be facing a hostile takeover ! Strange we still watch this STUPID, meaningless clip and even comment on it. WAKE UP PEOPLE ! we do not have time to waste anymore.

[GenXUnderground]

@Xjectivity mhm... you belong in the mental hospital.

[GameDoctor21]

ill shit my pants

[dswimr615]

Meh. It would have been cool were it not for the...

*peaceful music, quiet*

*hot air balloon: PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF­FFFFFFHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHH.*

*Back to quiet*

[ImBaLLEnHaRDER]

@dswimr615 Lol .

[djthum]

uhm, why not just look over the edge of the basket for a much more panoramic view.

[4Dannyj]

This is kinda cool and funny

[nitroy2k]

So what happnes if it brakes? :)

[SeitxiS]

this video actually inspired me to become a hot air baloon.

[SLeNdaLiLLa]

@SeitxiS That's funny cuz this video actually inspired me to watch 2 GIRLS 1 CUP again 0-o

[sclogse1]

@SeitxiS

let me know how that works out. When you can finally peek over the side of yourself, you know you got it made.

[nom281]

@SeitxiS i loled

[Razx211]

@SeitxiS So you are currently a hot-air balloon at the moment? Hmm..

[b000gi]

lol it tipped over at the end.

[39rc6cf]

Did you know that Japan has glass bottomed boats to review their World War II

fleet?

[CarpathiaS]

the balloon looks retarted, this is a great idea though :o

[MrZambooni]

flying BOX!!!

[dustball3010]

im just waiting for the glass to crack

[myblueroad]

I am a world renown sky diver

[afatdutch]

@myblueroad not by me you're not.

[RiPgears2]

that guy cant land that for shit

[JONSKATEVIDS]

is it really that hard to look ever the edge? if i was in that balloon i dont think i would even look through the floor. hats just stupid, your view is obscured by the metal supports and people feet :/

[RiPgears2]

@JONSKATEVIDS your such a dumb shit

[JONSKATEVIDS]

@RiPgears2 so your telling me if you rode in that, you would look out the bottom instead of over the side? no, you wouldnt. and the crude language is quite unnecessary.

[kambingbetula1]

at the end of video, i've been thinking..

"Did they died?"....

[DBSpy1]

I'm surprised I did not see this on top gear first,but now that I said it I will and they will be the ones that get paid. S Calif.

[donutboy187]

fuck that

[101Jman]

Or...you could just look over the side

[CrackeTheSkull]

remind me to never go on that thing with a fat person. especially an autistic one who enjoys jumping up and down spontaneously...

[pacman17pacman17]

charlie and the chocolate factory?

[Spurfan135]

they smoke a doobie before goin up there?

[mandyzeng1]

29.69 for 10k with code:"ogxi" on w w w . o g x i . c o m now

[pacloro]

i woudve been shitting maself if i saw that glass crack lol

[IAmPKo]

Just like Google Earth lol

[ruddgirl]

That is pretty scary.

[laxid87]

dont drop any thing heavy! 

[keyedyourcar55]

Im pretty sure you can just look over the side.....

[kuntstunt]

[bugdukhaha]

@kuntstunt

OMG THAT VIDEO MADE ME FEEL DISGSTED FOR A WHOLE DAY

[Dioxholster]

@bugdukhaha was there anything cool about that disgusting video? like were the chicks hot?

[hxcAlexx]

@kuntstunt Can your stupidity not handle classical music?

[frankthetank805cielo]

@hxcAlexx thats not classical music...

[kuntstunt]

@hxcAlexx lol i guess your just too hardcore to understand a joke hardcore alex.

[hxcAlexx]

@kuntstunt

You seem mad.

But who cares, you're both a 'kunt', and illiterate fool.

[kuntstunt]

@hxcAlexx do i know you?

[hxcAlexx]

@kuntstunt You still seem mad, bro.

[kuntstunt]

@hxcAlexx don't bro me broseph. 

[hxcAlexx]

@kuntstunt I do what I want, bruh

[Zoolander23456]

@kuntstunt HA!

[branfrog]

@kuntstunt yeah! one girl, one balloon and a bloke, that should be standard porno music! :D

[wh306]

Why the weird suggestions to the side?? -->

[deepfried777]

whats wrong with just looking over the side?

[youmonkey36]

the perfect day for me would be a ride on that thing accompanied by a carton of eggs

[SongWritingBum]

Wonka did it first...

[ruddgirl]

@SongWritingBum wonka had a wonkavator not the same thing. :p

[TangyTangoJuice]

omg the balloons a square with a dragon< OMFG THATS SO AWESOME

[pmr2564]

Its more awesome if the glass breaks.

[pseudogenesis]

I think Willy Wonka has one of those...

[dudeman9001]

i would shot the balloon with my rifle so i can see them die before my eyes fucking assholes

[itsChaldean]

i would be scared shitless if i was there

[justbitches]

i hope no one was wearing a skirt

[bMMflash]

Thats so cool!

[14Nonamer]

if i was on dat thing i wud shyt myself

[MrNajeeb100]

helo



[ImTMOTM]

What if someone shot the glass?!

[DaveandNic4eva]

@ImTMOTM "What if someone shot the glass?!" Well it's not America! Simple!

[willwork4superpowazz]

Paul Stumpf also has a glass bottomed hot air balloon!

[topmcs]

wow w

[aannddrreessee84]

google earth!!!

[ltsDj]

it wont be so cool when a group of people fall through huh!?

[willwork4superpowazz]

@ltsDj yes it would ;)

[AmericanAirmen024]

Amazing

[naughtyskweet6]

i guess i dont understand, can't you just look over the edge? you can see way more...

[naughtyskweet6]

i guess i dont understand, and you just look over the edge? you can see way more...

[SuperTaylor332008]

why not look over the side?

[willwork4superpowazz]

@SuperTaylor332008 cause the you'll realize it's all fake! they're still on the ground and that "glass botton" is actually an LCD HDTV!

[bigswallow2]

Brilliant!!! Nice tour of the city!

[zooyorkadriant]

Thats pretty cool but i would so be laughing if the glass bottom broke hahahaha!

[MrChillTube]

@zooyorkadriant you would be laughing? wtf is wrong wit you!? lol

[Uzianium]

I couldn't do that...Just couldn't.

[Toya3816]

There's only only one of these? It's not like this was difficult to implement.

[lazarra101]

Whoa, I would so hold on to the sides.

[girlsdancewhiskey]

facking creepy

[TheGuitaross]

WOW when the glass broke and they all fell.. I didnt see that one coming...

[mastergradeone]

scary!

i would strap on a parachute just in case

[alyssaeisman]

And so im giving my chocolate factory to you charlie.

[ender330]

no fat chix

[SixThreeTallBoy]

BEND THEM KNEES!

[fixingbraincell]

we did this already before! but ours glass broke. XD too bad for the passengers

[nostracamis]

you couldn't pay me enough to ride that!

[BrizzleMcGruff]

couldnt you just look over the edge?

[Klazyo]

nice video 

[biotoxin21]

that has some butthole puckering potential

[SeanyPMac]

what a great idea with the glass bottom

[tannersanta]

PAUL STUMPF

[shizluk]

i wouldn't be in they're shoes if the glass broke xDDD

[blankone87]

isn't it kinda pointless to have a glass bottom basket? i mean, aside from being uncomfortable, can't you look outside the basket? isn't that the point? who wants to be staring thru a glass bottom basket when you can see an amazing glass-free panoramic view. i'm just sayin'.

[JeremyDetroit]

sweet

[gpc510]

thats fucking beautiful

[RobBanx100]

this woulda bin a great upskirt video lol

[blaccsuhn]

cool!

[dragonmemories]

They won the prize from Willy Wonka.

[sironatti]

これは怖すぎる

[teen0828]

飛行機の床が透明になったら・・・なんて、色々想像しちゃいまし­たｗ

[hamu0629]

うあーーーーこえーーーーー

[niconinamegjeff]

Great music also!!

[vetromaster]

I have a hot-bottomed air baloon in my bath, wanna see?

[MrWasabiz]

Cool!

[Oscaracer]

The song reminds me of Eluvium's "Radio Ballet", it has a similar feeling, anyways please let us know about the song :D

[PiousPrincess]

looks pretty cool.

[ActingDragon]

I can tell "psstumpf" is serious cause he joined youtube a day after this vid was up just so he came make his point across to these guys. Good job Paul :D

[aldolacayo]

que salvaje!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jmlinde]

I've crewed for a hot air balloon and been up in one 3 times. I like going in a balloon, but this just seems too scary for me, I dont know if I could do that to myself.
