To make a wearable two-layer suit out of a vinyl inflatable, buy two. You cut a slot somewhere on both of them in the same spot. Reach inside and punch out the barriers across leg/arm openings, and put one inside the other. Bond the slot between them with solvent. A cloth zipper can close the slot. Cut/join similar slots for eyes/breathing. Climb inside, inflate the space between the two and it will envelope you. Warning: High pressure restricts movement and breathing, so don't wear alone.
@beeblebroxle Aw! That's sad! Its a little funny though that one of the most ferocious animals of the prehistoric age was bagged by a tiny puppy. It also makes me wonder what my sister's dog would do as he is a pit bull and he freaked out at a little swim ring and put two holes in it!
@dnave21 It wouldn't work, It would take way too much helium to make him fly. It would be cool though, I can see it now, The ultimate dinosaur shaped balloon! and at 10' he would even pwn those mylars which by themselves are really really cool.
@blazea242 Well I had the idea to use a special patch called tear aid for it. They have one that sticks to cloth and one to vinyl and I was told they will stick to each other.My idea was to lay down a strip on the vinyl put the zipper on that and sandwich it in with the cloth patch and hopefully that would work, I'm having trouble finding a drysuit zipper and I'm pondering on how I'm going to pump in fresh air.
@hi5534 Thanks! I Hope I can figure out the whole suit thing as I would really love to put it in a parade around the 4th of July but I doubt that. lol Hopefully I'll have it for Halloween.
@hi5534 Well that's the thing, I have no idea on how to do it. Takudragon and xylii42 both turned one into a suit and neither of them will tell me how they did it.
Theres inflateable suits like this everywhere.. you could just put a zipper on somewhere, and climb inside.

i think you have to sew a zipper onto it (ex:scuba suit zipper)

@InflatableTRex omg! would you really?! Film it!!!! that would be epic, I nearly bought a t-rex shirt, but sadly it was too small.

@hi5534 I'll figure it out someday. I know what they used it's just finding them and putting it all together that I'm stumped at.
