Great video! I am a Las Vegas balloon pilot and I was actually helping after launching the yellow "Smile High" balloon. I was the guy in the bright yellow hooded sweater in the first part of the video. I videoed the inflation up close this same day I think. You can look it up under Sheldon Grauberger Spilt paint. Your pilot Jeff is an incredible pilot and I am happy you had a chance to film your adventure! Thanks!
Thanks for the memories! I'm a licensed pilot but haven't flown in maybe 20 years.. the sound of the burner still sends chills up my spine! Think it would be like riding a bike... omg, to have my hands on that burner again and gently lift off!!!! Woot!
The narrative is great! Shows the whole process start to finish!

Just checked! It wasn't the same day, but it is your pilot Jeff inflating the same balloon!
