HAHAHA :-D!! I've gotta hand it to you. That's the first time I've ever seen someone land on a balloon. My accuracy isn't quite up to that challenge yet. Nope, not quite ready at all... Thanks for sharing.
If you look closely there's a big circular wooden disc on top. The pilot probably left the velcro tabs on the balloon's parachute done up too, just for extra measure but I doubt they would've sewn the top up. Also, the balloon is pretty firm when fully inflated and in the climb or straight and level. Bit like a soft air bed.

Awesome! I love it when people do that. Must be one hell of a soft landing! I love when he sildes down the side.

Wow! They must have sewn the top in on that balloon, otherwise he would have punched right through the vent hole when he landed on it.
