Nein Und Neunzig Luftballons


At dawn last Saturday, National Geographic, along with a team of scientists, engineers and balloon pilots, rendered a house air-worthy in a successful re-enactment of Pixar's aerial adventure, Up.

With the help of 300 coloured weather balloons, the house reached an altitude of 10,000 feet and remained aloft for an hour over an L.A. airfield.
