Balloon prank

Fill the balloons with hydrogen gas.

If it takes all 30,000 to fill the house, doesn't the rate of filling/knotting them work out as follows? It may not, since I'm barely numerate...

I'm assuming 8 hours a night sleep and that there's an anecdotal 9 days to get it done...

- 9 days * 16hr 'working' day = 144 hours to get it done.
- 30,000 / 144 = 208 balloons an hour, without rest/food/toilet break, from waking up to going to bed.

I reckon this might get somewhat downscaled to 1 room...

Either way, good luck and post pics/vids.

He’s probably been rumbled by his parents.

30,000 balloons? Dear god!

Did this turn out to be just a load of hot air?

Hades · 16 Aug 2011 at 08:51

Yes. Don't think this one got off the ground.

OP Clearly has had a heart attack from 30,000 odd balloons bursting in the house.

Did they see the funny side or are you the one crying?

I'm starting to feel let down by this balloon thread

Awww disappointing!

OP seems to have died from cracking his head open on the hallway table after tumbling down the stairs due to passing out from breathlessness.

What would happen if you filled 30,000 balloons with helium, stuffed them in the house, locked yourself in said house then went round and burst them all in one go?

You would probabally die from lack of air.

A better option would be to use hydrogen, and light a match. CRISPY.

The outcome of the thread has left me really deflated.
