Flying follies...
French team trying tightrope walking between balloons
A group of French daredevils tried to tightrope walk between two hot air balloons a few thousand feet in the air, David Harding reported on nydailynews.com earlier this year.
Filmmaker Sebastien Montaz-Rosset videoed the group as it tried to make the almost impossible crossing along a slack rope.
Some of those making the attempt fell, but for those who didn’t catch the rope in time, they were outfitted with parachutes.
