Balloons Are Amazing

Ok, so one balloon by itself is pretty cool. Like, you can play volleyball with it, or entertain a cat, or fill it with water and throw it at someone, you know, tons of fun stuff. But. what if you had several thousand balloons? All in one room? And then you added some college students who just got done with finals and have a bit too much energy? The results are quite astounding:

 

One half of the mastermind team that started this entire thing.

Raaaave!

For a comparison to just how tall the balloon pile was, I am on a bed here (about 18" off the ground) and I'm about 5'4".

Woah!

O.o Balloon creeper!

=D

Oh, and we probably broke a lot of/all fire safety codes doing this (about a week ago. Never got time to post this until now due to moving out of dorm), but our RA didn't complain and sort of joined the balloon fray as well, so no worries. The Fire Marshall would've probably had a heyday, but we would've invited him to join in if he had showed up.

I want to do that! O_O

 

It was so fun! Though if you do do it, I'd reccomend also getting on one of those balloon hand pumps, like the ones that people use when they're inflating balloons to make animal balloons, 'cause the two guys who blew all these balloons up did it using their own lungs. I'm amazed that neither of them passed out.

I want to do that tooooooo! It looks like such FUN, to frolic in a room full of balloons!

 

...may I steal that idea for future use? Pretty please?=D

Do it! I had an absolute blast. We got the idea from the Patch Adams movie. :)

 

But, you've gotta post pictures if you do, 'cause I don't know many other people who've actually done this.

Seriously, how long did it take to inflate all those? Also, WANT.

 

I think that it took them most of the day to inflate all of the balloons. One of the guys told me about how he watched four movies and sat and inflated balloons while he did it. It was about 10 PM when we we all jumped in.

Fire safety codes? Pah! Everyone knows that the balloons would eventually pop if the fire got too bad. :P

 

Well, it was more of the fact that we were blocking all the exits....but they're abnormally nitpicky about their rules sometimes here, so yeah. It was awesome.

Yeah, I blew up a hundred or so balloons in one morning with just my lung power, and was so high on air afterwards; it was amazing!

 

I'm definitely going to try this sometime. What a great prank, maybe! Walk in to your room and bam! Your hall just dumped 1000 balloons in there!

Oh my....CF....wow. Interesting.

 

That'd be awesome! Ok, you totally have to do that.
