Decide the next Balloon Project location!

[gruuz]

jetski? don't you know that the seakayak is the equivalent of the bicycle on the water.

Come to Bréhat Archipel (french britany) but not on a windy day.

see my kayak videos

[Unerly]

Did you guys decide yet? It's been over an year.

[danjda]

i agree plymouth would be an amazing location its a compleet patchwork of arcitecture of the ages the barbican is the oldest section having survived ww2 as well as this its a mix of modern re-generation, throw backs from the 60s+ and military strong holds. it is a fantastic idea as erything about plymouth is an interestin aray of contrasts. sorry for the spelling.

[emzywemzy26]

Plymouth is amazing, you've got the city which has so much going on, then on one side if the city you've got stunning coastline and on the other you have amazing rugged moorland. Best of everything :)

[emzywemzy26]

Hey, please come to Plymouth. I have two small children that i'll donate to help :) do come, it'd be amazing....trust me i'm a ....student nurse!

[SJBification]

Yeah come to Plymouth, it would be amazin!

[TheBalloonProject]

3xPlymouth! what is this place all about? need to know!

[SJBification]

It got the shit bombed out of it in the 2nd world war so people think its really ugly now (lots of 1950's prefab stuff), but its actually very beautiful and underrated. Its like an old person who's youth has been totally forgotten, the steps that the pilgrim fathers left from is right here, don't know whether thats a good thing or not but wish you would come and cheer everyone up.x

[SJBification]

sorry, meant that the steps are right here, not is right here, that makes no sense at all, but either way, please consider coming here, it would be unexpected at the very least.x

[obsessedtuesday]

Plymouth is awesome. It's not like, a major city so it's not full of skyscrapers and stuff, it has some really interesting architecture, although a lot of it got bombed down in the war. Some of the newer buildings are no where near as nice to look at, but it all adds to the overall beauty of the city. Plus, it right by the sea, so you'd get some nice views.

Also, I've told my friends about what you do and everyone's interested, and we reckon we could could get a load of bikes together.

[TheBalloonProject]

Well if you can get a load of bikes together... :)

What about a jet ski in case it goes in the water?

This sounds interesting!

[obsessedtuesday]

Woah, Jet Ski might be aiming a little bit too high. ^^

Not 100% on the bike's yet, but my Mum reckons she's got a friend who's got a couple in her garage, and I'm sort-of in the process of buying one for myself at the moment xP.

But yeah, it would be awesome if you came here.

I go to Plymouth Art College at the moment, and I bet the footage you guys get will be pretty popular there ^^

[obsessedtuesday]

YES! Come to England, Plymouth!

[TheBalloonProject]

England is on our list. How are the winters in Plymouth?

[obsessedtuesday]

Winter anywhere in England aren't great to be honest...

Don't let that put you off though!

[JamesPineStudios]

Come to Plymouth, England

[TheBalloonProject]

Plymouth, what's in Plymouth?

[Unerly]

Rotterdam / Antwerp / Montreal :D

[dmbucsfan]

ever thought of des moines, iowa i know it sounds kinda boring but i think it would be cooler than u may think at first let me know what u guys think

[crochunta99]

venice,italy

[TheBalloonProject]

ok, but how?

[adam1171990]

If you ever come to Florida I'd be more than willing to drive a few hours to meet up and chase baloons! =D

[shmuelix]

Come to Jerusalem guys, seeing the holiest of cities from the "baloon's eye" will be spectacular..

Great Project - I love it!

[TheBalloonProject]

how would chasing it be? do people use bikes a lot or would a motorcycle be best?

[tashilewis]

BARCELONA BARCELONA BARCELONA

if you come to barcelona ill help you out chasing the ballons by bycycle

it would be awesome to be part of this!

[TheBalloonProject]

We would love this! what part of town? L'example to barrio gotico?

[woutstar]

Belgium ---> Antwerp, beautiful city and the ballons could be able to fly over whole the city!

[TheBalloonProject]

are you there? do you have a bike and some friends that would be willing to chase the balloons? we might come in early march.

[xaworld]

Mexico City!!! I'll help you chase it!!!

[Blivox]

Probably too hard to get arranged, but I think it would be rather interesting to see the abandoned city of Chernobyl in Ukraine from the sky. Imagine seeing a totally deserted city, only wild animals on camera and no human life whatsoever.

[TheBalloonProject]

this would be a dream! visually i think going there and sending balloons up would be really awesome! we will talk soon!

[Blivox]

Keep me updated if possible, I'm very interested!

[boulatou123]

In the old City of BERN in switzerland

[TheBalloonProject]

okay.

[alexxerth]

i say you head to a really tall waterfall somewhere go next to it and let the balloon go there. the camera is waterproof right?

[TheBalloonProject]

this is on the list :)

[boulatou123]

Hey guys n your project is amazing , so crazy idea , wish you did it in switzerland n bruxelles ( cap of belgium ) did you tried in a dysney land or another attraction parc????

Keep rock !!!! XD

[TheBalloonProject]

thanks.

great ideas!

where in switzerland were you thinking?

[Hellomynamesolly]

Glastonbury festival!

[TheBalloonProject]

we're always up for doing more festivals! when is Glastonbury?

[Hellomynamesolly]

last weekend of june, you could prolly get in for free as a performance art act, its massive though 180000 people.

Sometimes at night people all set off loads of sky laterns, you could set off your ballons with them at night

[lucy121206]

Du must zu Berlin lassen. Wir haben sehr gut stadt fur deiner Kamera. Tschuss. Sucken sie kocken.

[ruglia]

Wish you did México, guys.

I just wanna tell you one thing: this is an awesome idea. Keep it up!

[TheBalloonProject]

thanks. mexico is definitely a possibility.

[arvizugirl93]

I wish i lived somewhere special cause i would love to help with you guys but i live in missouri :(

[TheBalloonProject]

i'm sure you can think of something you have that we haven't flown over yet... no?

[BoBoBenton]

Grand canyon?

The great lakes?

(bit dodgy water wise? but would be amazing!)

off of a mountain?

over the pyramids?

some where snowy?

[TheBalloonProject]

ok.

ok.

ok.

ok.

these are good ideas!

[cmkelso]

When you come back to the USA, you could launch from the 50-yard line of Texas Stadium in Dallas. This will the last year for the Cowboys to use this famous landmark, so this would be a great way to have a final send off for the stadium.

[TheBalloonProject]

we've thought about a stadium balloon project. that would be a great idea. when's the season go till? maybe they would pay us to fly our there...

[BoBoBenton]

london england! just do it!

[TheBalloonProject]

it will inevitably happen I'm afraid ;)

[BoBoBenton]

it would be great to get you out here, paris just doesn't cut it! you could go above the 2012 Olympic construction yard and i think you'd have a lot of support here!

but where ever you go i look forward to seeing where and when you do your next project :D

[azureNOblue]

Beijing,China

[TheBalloonProject]

yes please!

[jr325117780]

Rio De Janeiro, Brazil

[TheBalloonProject]

awesome idea!

[glassofwhitewine]

Malmö, Sweden!

[blueberry155]

Jag håller med.

[TheBalloonProject]

what time of year would be best (we're up for anything really)?

[glassofwhitewine]

anytime really, we just had the european social forum here so that would have been cool, but I'm sure there's plenty more interesting views to capture! The helium should not be too difficult to get. Hope to see you soon!

[marccas]

Prague sounds best-- (though I don't live there). Or, you could come back to try SF again!

[TheBalloonProject]

SF this winter!

[marccas]

Woohoo! I'm there to help (on bike, foot, organizing- you name it).  Keep me in the loop.

[wikkybikky]

please come to dublin, ireland. we will blow up some baloons, throw them into the sky and watch the rain knock them down again. but we will definitely show you a good time while you are here

[TheBalloonProject]

dublin looks like a good one for us. the more people to help the better. like where to get helium is one of the most important things. we'll let you know when we come.

[amelons]

you should do brazil and if you time it right you could be there for carnival

[jojomojo99]

North Hollywood, CA. Ok I know it's not Europe...but I know how to make Cheese Fondue...and that's European :)

[hughcharlesparker]

Birmingham, England, please. Although London would also be cool.

[Unstable66]

Seattle!!! Space needle!

[tenebrousllama]

pretend that sacramento is in europe and come here!

[malaflam]

Come to Orlando...think of all the theme parks you can fly over. You might get nabbed by the Disney police though. :/

[TheBalloonProject]

that would be fun!

[tejayce]

interesting .. looks like theres lots of nothern places in the comments .. london, stockholm, helsinki and tallinn.

most major cities in europe have been built close to rivers .. so you will always have the "water risk", even without the ocean.

the european soccer championship might be a nice setting indeed. using special events is a good idea in general.

are you going to make single trips, or literaly travel from location to location?

[Aramimitama]

Windsor, Ontario!

In our small city, nothing really ever happens that involves the community - I could imagine what it would be like to have the city watching you guys do your stuff! Please consider!

[TheBalloonProject]

that would be amazing! we would totally love to come there and make a community event!

we're in europe right now but if we get a sponsor to bring us to ontario we wouldn't definitely come! thanks for the message!

[whoppilili]

East Europe is indeed a good idea! Riga or Tallinn...

PS: flights from berlin are cheap

[GSatiFan]

switzerland or austria! in a city where the euro08 will take place ;-]

[smartbandwidth]

I want you guys to come to Chicago someday! Lake Michigan may pose a problem, but we'd just have to get some motorboats to chase the balloons.

[EggYolk]

you guys already know, but again, TOKYO :D

[shatminer]

London!

[citizenstand]

how friendly is london to bicycles and people who drive on the right side of the road? where would we ride our bikes?

[shatminer]

no worse than new york I'd imagine, it would be a bit insane to do it over oxford street in rush hour or something though. release them outside the tate modern on a sunday afternoon and hope it doesn't land in the river!

[owenissalty]

Toronto, Canada!

[BataviaMonaco]

MONACO ! during the Grand Prix Formula One ! Actually, not easy to chase the cam ! but great video ! Rendez-vous in May 2009, Ok ?

[DennysNest]

oh my goodness :) please come to Lithuania! (Kaunas or Vilnius city) that would be amazing

[TheBalloonProject]

thanks for the ideas!

have you been to these places or live there?

we will check those places out for sure!

[DennysNest]

if you are a little interested in Lithuania (yes im living there), and you want ski also.. check Trakai city! an amazing place, wonderful views! i could help also as much as i can :) take care people, the balloon project rocks my world!

[whitehorsephoto]

Liverpool in England,I have access to a powerboat if it flies out over the sea by mistake!

[TheBalloonProject]

a powerboat!!! sweet!

that's a big incentive for us :)

we'll put you on the list.

[aGreenMiND]

helsinki'd be cool yea..

[TheBalloonProject]

yes it would! but i think we'd need a boat for helsinki!

[aGreenMiND]

LoL!!

Okay then, Prague! It has a lot of golden rooftops :o :D

[liamurphy62]

what was that picture at :40 seconds? a picture of the country u realli want us to say to go to?

[aGreenMiND]

a picture of europe . so yea..,. pick a place :P

[joelovesyou]

You could probably knock out Cologne and Düsseldorf in one day, I got a couch in Duss for your team:)

[citizenstand]

yeah a friend of mine mention dusseldorf might be a good one. and i thought yeah and joe's there! :)

[CalebICT]

If in the USA the bottom of the Grand Canyon would be cool. In Europe, How about Budapest.

[scamfilm]

Yea...what ckyboy12 said please go to Helsinki, Finland you can see water and all kinds of stuff

[ckyboy12]

Helsinki, Finland!!!!!! please

[TheBalloonProject]

do you live there and perhaps own a boat? :)

[Mr125]

Hamburg Germany

[TheBalloonProject]

yeah we thought about sending it over the harbor in hamburg. do you know if you can rent boats or jetski's there? or i guess we could always swim ;)

[nezoone]

Riga, Latvia is a possibility in July. Our house will already be full, but here is always room for more people...

[TheBalloonProject]

a house full of people we could convince to chase balloons! ;) very tempting!

[Grenozh]

you forgot poland!

[ihearnoises]

come to cologne. it's nice here!!

[tehbertl]

AMSTERDAM! Or at least, somewhere in Holland. Please.

[yaffle]

narnia!

[orchi99]

you are so drunkkkkennn!!!!! damn

[ournationalspace]

cool idea - and exciting - that last 5 seconds of this video are great!

[starprincess1612]

Stockholm, Sweden

[whymeee]

Barcelona or Paris

[Chocaz]

Stockholm, Sweden:D

[etharooni]

Oh. I didn't watch the rest of the video. I dunno. Somewhere cool in Europe.

[etharooni]

PORTLAND, actually no. The grand Canyon or something like that would be awesome.

[SteveTheSkorie]

Id help ifyou came to Shetland!

But theres not much to see here. Only confused locals/ And its very windy. So youd need to be ready to cycle for your life! Then get in a boat. Because you are always within a mile of the sea. But I know a couple of people with boats.

[hartnell114]

come to London Engand! that or vervey in switzerland :)

my comment code just now was rusha so maybe russia!?

[owlphanumeric]

antwerp, summer...be there or be square.

[lilhagan]

London

[incomplte1perfection]

London, England?

I live in North West london if that helps =]

[howesy]

In August, try one over Reading festival in England :]

Its one of the major UK festivals, and it would make a pretty awesome video i think.

[Annaconda1984]

oh i forgot to mention bamberg

[citizenstand]

we will for sure look into bamberg. i remember you mentioning that a while ago.

[GigiTheWalkingHorse]

Bamberg is an inordinately nice place. Never marry a woman from there though. Or do - they're great but just don't expect to ever have an opinion of your own again in the future. Women from Bamberg are wonderful but they ... they like to wear the trousers.

But Bamberg is really nice buuuuuuuuuuut, a bit small. You could combine it with Nürnberg, if you knew anyone there :o)

[TheBalloonProject]

yeah we know someone there.

we wanna try and do cities and places that are really different so we'll have to check if it's much different from berlin.

[tiffry7]

FRANCE

[citizenstand]

that's quite a big place to cover! all of france!

[Annaconda1984]

bamberg

[Annaconda1984]

bamberg

[Annaconda1984]

bamberg

or munich 888

[citizenstand]

888 would be cool with all the youtubers watching from below :)

[tiffry7]

Tokyo JAPAN!!!!!!!!!!!

[BataviaMonaco]

Yes, good idea ! I will be in Tokyo next month, but we need to be more people as only two for this kind of megapole !

[citizenblooper]

i also have a friend in tokyo...

[xSteviEJeebiEx]

ESTONIA

[citizenstand]

estonia. have you been there? where in estonia?

[xSteviEJeebiEx]

Tallinn. Then you can trek over to Finland

[xSteviEJeebiEx]

NIAGARA FALLS

[rburkwood]

London!!

I'll help!

[bwhahrhr]

Europe? I wanted to say some nice place in irak or afghanistan ;)

[DennysNest]

hi there Matthias :)

[citizenstand]

are you trying to kill us?

[bwhahrhr]

NEVER! (:

[TheBalloonProject]

thanks m!

[kenrg]

London or Amsterdam would be cool.

If you do another US tour, you got to put Boston and SF on the list.

[withanoxgoad]

austin!!! of course i can help! im ignoring that its a eur0 tour

[jax12007]

stockholm

[YouWalkLikeAPeasant]

LONDON!
