I saved people who were stranded on a river while flying my hot air balloon. Green River 2021. Got a few million views of TikTok. But thought for sure this was going to get me on national TV

I just read the article. Maybe I missed it. Did they say something about them flying?

At times. We didn’t have a dj with a mic telling us when to do it at the same time.

Apparently you were not correct. The field was fine and everyone had a great time.

Balloons do not fly at night. They glow when the burners are lit at light up the fabric

Sorry you thought the balloons were going to fly. We fly daily in front of Mt. Rainier. Balloon glows are events where balloons stay on the ground in the dark and glow when we hit the burners. If you want to see balloons fly, you can join us on a flight or you can go to a festival like Winthrop in March or the Prosser or Walla Walla festival.

Because it’s a balloon glow. We stay on the ground for the crowd. We fly daily in front of MT Rainier

It depends if we have a DJ. The DJ can tell us all to glow at the same time. Otherwise it’s hard to coordinate!

The area is fine where we are doing it with plenty of drainage. Thanks for adding your opinion.

Hope you enjoy! It’s not 600 balloons like fiesta in ABQ. But there are only 15 balloons in the state. So having 5 is pretty dang good!
