Why do I want to do this?

... because I've always wanted to? Legend has it that, as a tiny child, I was taken to a balloon fair and was immediately hooked. Even today, I get very excited when I see a hot air balloon drifting through the sky: huge, improbably, brightly-coloured. I'd love to go up in one.


How will I know when it's done?

I'll have been off the ground in an untethered hot air balloon for at least thirty minutes.


I'll record this pretty much everywhere.
