When I saw it a couple years ago, I knew it was going to happen... ok, so, who jumped the big orange balloon?

You talking about this one?

I seriously doubt they'd let you and it only goes to 500ft so it would be BASE only anyway. You'd have to do some serious arranging to pull that off.

that's the one... http://www.ocregister.com/news/park-234638-balloon-officials.html

I don't really want a name. but the video would be cool! haha.

I'm actually surprised they got away. I was just at the park this weekend to try the free ice skating, and to get in/out is a long 2 way gated road, with a security shack at the exit point. I'm guessing the few workers they have were in shock and didn't quite kjnow how to react!

9 pm jump? I didn't think they operated that late . . . or was that a typo?

San Diego's Wild Animal Park has one as well.

Lift height, per one web site, is reported to be 400 feet.

Perhaps ask this guy who's video'd climbing it!
