He's so brain rotted, his first reaction was "ha I caught you trying to stop me"
yea bro really thought he had him with that LMAO
The dude sucks ass but that wasn't his point. He was saying that because he's on camera trying to stop him then he won't get in trouble if he jumps. Still braindead, but not the same.
as if it would make any difference in a lawsuit against the balloon pilot - kinda like "ok we saw that you tried to stop me, you're in the clear now let me jump"
Brain rot! Perfectly described 😂
natural selection need to get ride of all these clowns
In case you are wondering what the big deal is, it is that when a weight of a person is suddenly removed from a hot air balloon, the ballon can shift suddenly and goes into an uncontrollable ascend. There are sandbags on the balloon that can be dropped incrementally and strategically to navigate the balloon in case of emergency.
The safety of the balloon depends heavily on carefully calculated weight distributions. People take for granted their own body weights that they don't realize just how heavy they are and how that weight plays a major role in maintaining stability in airplanes and boats. While spontaneously jumping off big airplanes or boats won't cause any problems, with smaller vehicles like hot air balloons or canoes, even one person can cause these things to tip over.
The balloon has no self propulsion. All it can do is go up by heating the air inside the balloon or dropping sandbags. Or going down by literally doing nothing but let the air in the balloon cool down to let gravity take over. To move laterally, the pilot moves the balloon to ride the air masses in the atmosphere. So if a big weight suddenly leaves the balloon, the acceleration upwards can collapse the balloon. The inflated balloon is the only thing that keeps the basket afloat.
The question is did the idiot skydiver wannabe know all this delicate dance between these forces? Imagine that he did jump and caused the balloon to crash and killed all onboard. How lenient will the punishment be if he claims ignorance of the mechanics of hot air balloon flight?
thanks for explaining.. i know he was being annoying, but was confused how he was endangering anyone
Just like three men in a tub, when the fourth jumped out.
I don’t disagree with your explanation, but how do they do thousands of jumps a year out of hot air balloons? Is there a strategy that has to be employed to prevent this sudden rise?
@@davidharmon3865 Hot air balloons rely on the moving air masses to navigate. The same with para gliders. These balloons have no propulsion on their own. They rise by heating up the air in the balloons, if necessary in case of an emergency that calls for rapid ascend, sandbags are dropped. This is why hot air balloons are only found over sparely populated areas. To descend, they simply let the air in the balloon cool to let gravity take over. It’s a delicate dance with the atmosphere and gravity. When the balloons are not in any moving air masses or are descending, it’s safe to have people parachute off. There was an accident on the news when a paragliding person got trapped in a moving air mass that took her high up in the air where she passed out from lack of oxygen. The air mass took her hundreds of miles off course because she was unconscious to navigate herself. She survived to tell the tale, but others in her group died. When you don’t listen to Mother Nature at your own peril. That’s the difference between thrill seekers that live a long life enjoying their pursuits and those arrogant and clueless ones who fortunately die soon enough for the sake of others around them.
and no matter if he managed to pull it off or not, he wouldve fallen into irrelevancy in less than a month
What’s worse is that eventually it’s found out that the guy didn’t have his skydiving license so he lied about that and didn’t know what he was doing
So not only would he be a giver he would've been a recipient of the Darwin award.
That from a Tiktoker? No way!!! 🤣🤣
you don't say?
If nobody else were in the balloon, then the stupidity would've fizzled itself out like a candle in a blizzard.
that answers so much yet also makes it so much worse
he was willing to beat him to make sure he didn't jump. that's a legend right there
Dude was willing to beat him to save his life, and the life of every one on that balloon
He might have learned something.
The restraint probably killed the next group of people this megamind will endanger.
@@mistahstyle Also, isn't a balloon an aircraft? He is the captain and has 100000% responsibility for the safety of everyone on board. if he just lets someone jump out, that's his career over.
@@royaltoadclub8322 he has responsibility, but if you just jump out and kill everyone it's 10000% your fault for being at best a dumbass and at worst suicidal
I'm willing and I wasn't even there.
Jumping at too high an altitude can cause a hot air balloon to rise too high and collapse in, killing everyone.
How does one person jumping out cause it to rise, can’t he just adjust it?
Ok I get it Ty.
@@adknight1987 i imagine a weight loss so sudden would make it hard for the pilot to control it in time before something happens.
@@adknight1987 you be surprised how losing 200 lbs can do to that air ballon, no matter the adjustment
@@adknight1987 heat from the burner causes lift, it is set to balance out at current weight. if weight is sudenly reduced, even if you turn of the burner, it would take a while for the air inside ballon to cool. So, for a period of time you are helplessly lifting up.
@@adknight1987 Are you trying to defend the piece of shit trying to jump?
“Bro come on maaan😢”. These types of people never grew up and were never told no as a kid. Raise your children right folks
I will, sir.
Just a few of the old time punch practices xd
It’s not always the parents. These days ppl are very influenced by the internet
Or don’t have any kids at all!
It's just the tiktok generation they think they can do whatever they want regardless of consequences, everyones tiktok should be public, if you have an account you as a business should be allowed to prevent them from entering/joining or whatever your business based on that alone.
The balloon pilot is a true professional who cares about his passenger's safety.
And his safety
He would've been professional if he explained how sudden weight loss for a hot-air balloon is extremely dangerous.
@@HaotoAnimeOnPiano A professional doesnt have to explain how things work. some people may not have the level of comprehension for it. or are even willing to listen to whatever it is your professional in, professional mean you operate your job in a manner its supposed to. not operate your job in a manner its supposed to and make sure everyone else understands why it works like that
Theoretically, if that TikToker DID manage to jump off, could the balloon operator do anything to save the lives of the others ?

@@blak3brutus229 < i think we found one of the braindead children
"I have you on camera stopping me!"
"... uh .. ok?"
I think the idea for that TikToker was something along the lines of, 'I have you on camera stopping me... Meaning that you will not be legally responsible for whatever happens even if I get hurt. So can you just let me do my stupid little stunt for clicks?'
@@chankljpThat was my first reaction, too. And whilst I think some people might believe themselves hard-assed enough to go 'Alright, if I can't be held legally liable, and you are going to ignore my warning that we're not high enough and you will die, go ahead and grab your Darwin award.', I can also see how someone wouldn't want to let an idiot off themselves on their watch, if just for their future selves soundness of mind.
Other comments also mention the issue of losing ballast that quickly, but I feel like if *that* was the reason the operator wouldn't let him jump, he would have just straight up said "If you jump, the balloon can leap out of control and WE are all gonna die." and even the smoothbrain TikTok guy would probably have understood that much.
@@Alblaka also the parachute the dumb fuck has could get caught on the hot air balloon or there wont be enough wind to open the primary parachute and the reserve one might not make in time since they would be jumping from a static point rather than from a plane thats moving really fast
"Ha i caught you on camera stopping me from committing murder!"
the people commenting this have to be teenagers, its clear he is saying it for liability purposes.

@@PrincessofKeys But it guarantees that he can't pull any more shit like this until he's released.
"If you don't let go of my hand I am going to hit you" fair and stern warning by the pilot. Most polite way of saying I am holding you here and don't mess with me or I will mess you up.
That dude is a good dood. Taking it calmly, protecting a life, he's a good guy and I hope people only send him support.
He didn't only protect a life, he saved everyone's life on board that balloon. But totally correct that dude right there is a good dang dood.
This Tiktoker never took a physics class... That rapid weight shift can cause the balloon to rapidly ascend making it highly unstable and could've killed everyone
Tiktoker slept through physics class. Otherwise, he'd have enough brain cells to coordinate with the balloon operator ahead of time so they can do this safely.
You need a physics class to know this? People knew this stuff before physics was invented. And now you have tiktokers
Yeah but, muh clout y'know? C'mon bro
Yeah.... but, he had a parachute.
no he is talking bout the balloon and the ppl inside. If he jumps then assuming he is 80+ kgs with parachute the balloon will suddenly start ascending rapidly coz of weight loss and the guy controlling the speed cannot get it under control in time(high chance) and ppl might shake and fall off too in panic. not to mention the force he will apply on the balloon when he jump off its ledge pushing the carriage sideways to gain momentum for his leap@@thedarkemissary

In the full video the guy operating the balloon also mentioned to the parachute guy that if he had jumped, he could have lost his license to operate his balloon. Even that didn't seem to change his mind about what he was planning....
He was willing to risk costing the balloon operator his livelihood just so he could do his jump for his own personal buzz / clout. Totally selfish.
Update from the USPA, the jumper already lose his license long time ago so he try to jumps from anywhere as long as not in US so USPA can't monitoring him... this video is happens in Nepal so basically he goes to 3rd world country to avoids legal consequence LOL
@@bobbywrtmhey genius, he's not talking about the jumper. Are you just typing random words and sniffing your own farts?
@@smileymalaise someone's having a bad day
@@smileymalaisehe giving people like u additional information about how stupid and wrong the jumper is, he not by any mean trying to correcting op statement
@smilaise everything he said was correct though. The jumper has lost his US license, which is why he travels to other countries to try these stunts.
I'm sure the sudden loss of 180lbs of ballast wouldn't be good for anyone else in that balloon... dude is crazy.
He's trying to negotiate with the guy like "We have video of you trying to stop me, let me jump you won't lose your license, you have an alibi". Except he's basically arguing with a man who knows he could die as a result of that guy jumping, who is too stupid and careless to realize the danger he's putting people in.
165lbs to account for the lack of a central nervous system
@@peoplez129I wonder what people response going to be after the become pancake
And if you include the weight of the parachute it would be closer to 200 pounds, which is even worse.
@@peoplez129 why didnt he explain the consequence of his jumping then
From everyone who doesn't understand this situation: This young man had a skydiving rig which is designed for terminal velocity deployments (ie around 120 mph) There is a device called a slider which is positioned above the risers that slows the opening of the canopy. The reason why is that jumping a B.A.S.E. rig (that does NOT have a slider) at terminal speeds would probably break the jumpers back from the impact. What would have happened was the jumper would have left from Sub-Terminal (Balloon or Helicopter) and once he deployed his main canopy, it would have not inflated properly so even if he cut away and deployed his reserve it would have not inflated properly either. In either case if he had jumped, the weight difference in the balloon could have caused instability resulting in collapsing the balloon, ending in a bad day for everyone.
Wow! You must be a REAL expert with all that knowledge of skydiving and BASE jumping. How many thousands of jumps do you have? Send how many baloon jumps? Or maybe you just read some crap online and NOW you're an expert. I've made plenty of baloon jumps, some wearing my wing suit and always with other jumpers exiting g together. Oh and we ALL had sliders on our rigs every time.

Sorry, but you sound like someone who's had a professional prepare everything for them "thousands of times" and doesn't understand what they're talking about. This comment provides a series of facts that can be fact checked quite easily and as far as I can tell they are demonstrably right. In comparison, all you've really said is "I did it and it was fine" which isn't something anyone here can confirm so we may as well treat it as a lie. If you've jumped so many times, how about you explain is comprehensive detail why this guy is wrong? That way, you'll come across as someone who knows better disappointed is misinformation and not a child having a tantrum.
It should also be noted that whatever the truth of what this guy is saying, springing a jump on an unsuspecting hot air balloon operator is dangerous for everyone on board for the reasons stated. Having there be potential circumstances where it's ok doesn't change that.
@spankyhadley515 Roger that. Did you also remove that stick from your ass when you jumped, or do you just prefer to leave it in because you love hard wood embedded in your ass?
People don’t realize that hot air balloons are a delicate balance of lift and weight. If 200 lbs just jumps out of a hot air balloon, that thing is going ass over because of rapid acceleration.
People don't realize that 99% of what they believe was made up by someone on the spot to sound cool in a youtube comment.

People died after a bunch of sky divers jumped out a hot air balloon in pheonix pretty recently.
You can find pilots willing to let you skydive they are also the type of pilots who fly into water and do ankle breaker landings but they exist.
Main thing to be aware of is losing weight as you lose weight in a balloon you will shoot up really fast. Get too high too fast and you can blow the top out as the pressure inside the balloon will want to escape at altitude with low pressure. Then you have about 5 minutes to fix the top before your throat closes and you can't put heat in anymore. The top is a seal that uses the pressure in the balloon to keep the heat in but it's just fabric it can be pushed out if there's enough pressure.
Usually if you do a skydive from a balloon the pilot will be in a descent to prepare for the loss of weight, sometimes mitigating the loss by doing 1 or 2 at a time.
One last fun fact balloon ensurance doesn't cover skydiving.
This is a good explanation of the danger.
That sounds like horse shit. 1 guys weight on a balloon with like 1600 lbs of lift?
@hapablap2088 Just do the math; the equation uses basic grade 8 mathematics.
@@hapablap2088 there's a thing we used to do when we launched in the middle of a bunch of trees so we didn't run into them. We would all hang on to the basket and all jump off when he became buoyant with our weight and he would shoot up higher than the trees in about 10 seconds and then some. If I had to guess probably 800 ft and that's 3 guys on 400,000 cubic foot balloon on a 21 passenger. We abbreviate the sizes so a 400,000 would be a 400 and a 315 would be 315,000. A 400 is one of the heaviest balloon rigs, think of it like bus. They move slow they are sluggish to rise and take a lot of heat to get them rising. The pilot in the video was in a small basket since he only had like 4-5 passengers those are light like a hatchback or sedan. Those have good response and use less fuel being able to rise off of a few bursts of heat. I don't know what he was flying smallest I've worked on was a Cameron echo 17 passenger 315 and a kubacheck 6 passenger with a 125 and the 125 could climb. The lighter you are the more touchy the balloon is in that you don't need much fuel to rise. In the video's case I would guess that he's flying a 190 and in a 5 passenger but because of how the basket has dividers it has a burner rack that would need a large throat balloon which I've only seen on 190s. Losing one person on an already light balloon can launch a good height at least 1200ft. The lighter the balloon the faster it can go up and if a person jumps and pilots burning then they can go up really fast a lot faster than you would expect. I don't know the exact hight but you get a loss of outside pressure that pushes a top out and if you're quick you can fix it but the lighter you are the faster your throat can close. If you're throat closes you can't put heat in and if you can't put heat in you are falling to your death. Light balloons kind of take a mushroom cloud kind of shape when light and don't get fully rounded meaning the throat is already like a pipe. Typically you don't want to fly a balloon light because if the throat is thin past the nomex (nomex being a heat resistant fabric fire fighter clothes are made of) you will get fire contact on the fabric which will shrink and become brittle. That's just how it's designed to prevent it from catching fire.
Yea I went on a tangent let me know if you need clarification or got more questions. I can't say for certain if him jumping would be an issue I don't know how high they are or the balloon rig being flown but jumping without letting the pilot know is just a dick move. You got different wind speeds at different altitudes and if he's trying to maintain a direction by staying at a specific altitude and the guy jumps causing the balloon to rise into a direction and speed he probably doesn't want to have really makes his job harder. Right now winds are pretty high and that's just common around spring so pilots will try to find steady winds to take and keep out of the speed unless you have a speed demon pilot that lives for that kind of thing. Also most balloon flights you pay after so they take you back to the shop or place you parked and you pay before you leave. So skydiving and having your boys pick you up would be a way to get out of paying. I also don't know what the laws are like out there I know in the US skydiving hot air balloon insurance is pretty expensive and a lot of private pilots will pay for insurance but not claim they do skydiving but do it on the side. If an incident does occur like say someone gets injured or equipment is broken or property was damaged and your insurance sees you had skydivers then you are paying out of pocket and depending on what you wrecked you can pay anything from $800-$2mil. FAA doesn't really have any strict rules against skydiving from hot air balloons but you do get some pilots that start out and want to do that but don't know what they're doing and end up dying. I remember a new pilot flew in Albuquerque New Mexico during mid day and there is a reason balloons don't fly in the mid day because all winds are too variable and like to funnel into the middle of cities. He was stuck in the middle of downtown spinning in a circle I don't know how his landing went but I'm sure it wasn't pretty, I just know he survived so hopefully he learned.
what stops hot air to escape from below as the balloon rapidly rises and the air tries to expand following an isotherm? why would the situation differ if the dangerous height is reached slowly? Why the top is made of such a lousy material nor is reinforsed if it is known to be the weakest point of the whole balloon?
If I could even get myself in a hot air balloon, something like this would absolutely set off a horrible panic attack. How inconsiderate and stupid of this man
I went on a balloon ride and it went smooth as could be, yet I was inwardly terrified most of the time. Something like this might have done me in.
These people don't care at all about others as long as they get that tictoc number up.
It’s the balloon operators lively hood so he can feed his family, stoping idiots from becoming a toxic skid mark on the hillside…
He even sounds like a toddler with the "come on man"
yea he a toddler mentally, cant believe there are people this stupid risking lives for tiktok its insane.
Never told no growing up, obviously never got his ass whooped for acting like a brat either.
You mean he sounds like our president lol. Cmon man!
I can go on about how absolutely insane this guy is for trying such a stunt without alerting the operator beforehand or even looking up how air balloons work in the first place, but instead I'm just gonna give huge props to the operator. Dude saw the parachute, immediately knew what was about to happen, and potentially saved innocent lives from this brain-addled tiktoker. Man deserves a raise. A big one. I do feel sorry for the innocent folks too; they just wanted to enjoy a fun time in the sky and some derp appears to ruin it.
What would have happened if he would have jumped?
@@ayushtomar6604I would assume if he did a jump with a push the balloon could get shaken up. Also the hot air balloon will go up suddenly, since it lost weight. Other than that u gotta ask the experts.
@@ayushtomar6604the balloon would rise very rapidly due to the sudden loss of weight. This can cause the balloon to cave in and then well…down you go
@@ayushtomar6604 Weight balancing is extremely important when it comes to hot air balloons. If a big chunk of that weight was to suddenly disappear in midair, the balloon will become unstable and rapidly ascend. Turbulence, loss of control, maybe even the balloon collapsing could all happen.
You can argue only one person jumping out might not be enough of a difference, but that'd be gambling with the lives of those still inside the balloon. Not to mention, the operator could've lost his license because you need to go through the proper channels and have permission to skydive out of air balloons. The operator here was 100% in the right to stop this guy.
@@soulechelon2643 Nah you cant really argue that one persons weight would be insignificant, the average person weighs between 160-250 pounds ( guy n video is prolly around 190-200) plus his parachute and rig which is another 10-15 pounds. When talking hot air balloons that is a very significant amount of ballast to lose suddenly.
He can jump, but the parachute is staying.
you totally missed the point. If he jumps the people who stays inside the balloon could get seriously hurt, perhaps even unalived.

Stupid people are a weapon. There's always going to be a social media platform where actions are filmed and posted lol. Pretty stupid to think the absence of specifically tiktok would prevent this, look at the website you're using lmao
Weaponized stupidity
A Chinese weapon.....
You kept your composure better than I would.This man is a dangerous person.
Dude saved his life. What a g
No, he saved other passengers' lives. That idiot gonna be fine with his parachute, but jumping off a balloon isn't the same as plane or heli. The balloon will tilt so hard due to sudden change in weight, and endanger everyone on it.
i got to ride in a balloon this past summer . i can only imagine how terrifying this is for the passengers that didnt know what was going on. just going up in a balloon like that is already stressful enough.
I took a ride like 10 years ago in turkey. We went up before sunrise. I took a plane a couple of times and am not very afraid of heights in general.
It was incredible but i was also scared af. The pilot handled the situation very well.
You certainly dont want a guy just jump from it. Wtf is wrong with people...
Tiktok sucks
your fav creator uses it all day hipocresy man
Agreed
@@zMolly thats not how you spell hypocrisy and thats not hypocrisy
@@zMolly the hypocrisy would be if the OP was using tiktok
Don’t blame TikTok, people do it on UA-cam too (the famous plane crash) and Kick (harassing people in Japan). Blame the creator.
Good on this man for not allowing stupidity
It was not mentioned in the video but the main problem here is that weight is extremely important. It is carefully calculated to keep buoyancy. You can't just jettison 90kgs (200lbs) instantly from a balloon it will be extremely hard to descend. He is definitely commiting a crime: Reckless endangerment in the first degree. It's a felony.
*captain out*
While it's not optimal you can account for it by opening the vent more but you would have to find a new balance between the burner and the vent and that's where you could run into problems
My first thought: "Wait wouldnt the balloon then be way too light to control and land safely?"
This guys thought: "I'm probably gonna get atleast 100 new followers for this and 10000 if the balloon crashes"
he probably dont even aware the balloon could crash
"sky diving is expensive, im gonna try a cheaper one"
By endangering other people's lives @@jensennc94
@@kumomeme7852 someone mentioned the jumper was already banned from doing this in USA or something so i assume he knew it wasnt allowed he just didnt care and went to other countries to do it
@@olorin3815 He got banned in US and supposedly a couple other 1st-world nations so now he goes to 2nd-world nations and stuff who don't have him on-file as "no-fly" to try and do this
Pretty scummy tbh
Sometimes being a good person is literally being the villain to the villain.
Shoutout to the Hot Air Ballon "Tour guide" for standing his ground.
The camera crew are all smiling, they literally have no idea that this man is saving their lives.
Not sure if the guy at the end smiling while filming with his cellphone is part of it, or if he is another passenger just getting filmed by the tiktokers friend.
He might be, but cant say for sure unless you have some more information?
In any case, just felt like if he was an innocent bystander filming his crazy day witnessing what happened then he shouldnt get smeared for it
I think the guy with glasses was actually getting amused by the situation while he was also filming it. Not sure if he was "The camera crew" .
In the longer video the guy explains that if he jumps, the weight change will kill the rest of them.
Not the only thing filled with air that day
It’s so quiet up there it’s scary 🫣
aviation ratings are no joke, not cheap either, im working on my PPL for fixed wing, no clue how it works yet for balloons, or other countries outside of US, but i can guarantee you that even if jumper landed and everyone was fine, in the US the FAA would NOT be ok with the jumper OR the PIC of that flight, the pilot could have lost his ratings for that so good on him for firmly not allowing any of that nonsense.
Apparently people who operate hot air balloons are also saying the sudden lose of weight could have put everyone left on the balloon at risk.
@@n3v3rforgott3n9 oh yeah, probably because the lift is being produced differently i would imagine, or just the balance of the basket, that makes sense. yeah there's probably a good reason the standard procedure for skydiving is to use a plane.
No you aren't
@@aarons6935?????????
A while ago I've seen a video from Mentour Pilot about a incident, and he went into some detail about getting licence. What an absolute monumental task it is to even be permitted for "exam" flight, before any type of company specific training can be considered.
We now live in a time where millions of people will act like fools, break the law, or endanger their lives and the lives of others. Just so that a bunch of people on the internet can see them do it, then forget about it completely in 3 days.
It’s downright embarrassing and pathetic. To be willing to degrade yourself like that. To potentially destroy your life physically and or legally. Just for the approval of people who you don’t know, will never know, who will forget you anyway.
More like forget about it 5 minutes later.

What annoys me is the zero concern he has that the other paying passengers had their balloon ride terminated early. It likely wasn't cheap.
Tiktok should ban any users who try stuff like this.
TikTok is the West encourages degenerate and dangerous behavior and targets the kids. TiKTok Chynuh version gives their kids educational content and limits the number of hours they can use it. That ain’t no accident.
TikTok is a weapon used to make western society crumble. It’s working exactly as intended and it’s far more effective than any bomb or military force.
If you actually were dumb enough to make an account, it’s never to late to just choose to not be dumb anymore.
In an ideal world they would but its got much worse shit than this on and always has. They don't care and the people in charge of TikTok should be in jail.
Rare Alex sighting!!!

It's a Chinese Overlord company, they intentionally fund this shit to fuck with the West. You'll notice none of that shit is allowed in China, where the Company is from.
Sorta like none of the Social media lords let their kids use social media (because they know all the negatives it causes).
the meta is currently is "Going to a friendly country to be an ass since most people there are to nice to do anything"
Yeah, its pissing me off pretty good seeing that be the new trend to get away with stupid stunts / be a nuisance more easily.
Speed running the Ugly American Stereotype
The operator should have said he could jump without the parachute.
Sadly, that would still put the lives of the other people in the balloon in danger
I think people don't understand how dangerous a major shift in balance is for ANY aircraft in the skies. (A balloon is considered as a aircraft if those who don't know)
Not only that, reducing some weight on a balloon will make it go up even more...
and if it goes too high, it can break and everyone fall to their death.
The guy was so smug and arrogant too.
“I have rich parents so I can do anything I want” vibes.
"You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy"
Did not even care about the harm he was capable of inflicting on strangers.
This is right up there with the lady who grabbed the lever in the helicopter

Imagine preparing to skydive from a hot air balloon without doing the research first
He's done it many times before.
legit cyberpunk dystopia. but with a steampunk twist this time
Context: For people that doesn't understand big air balloons:
It's the weight that makes the balloon stay neutral. Hence at first flights they have weights on them before takeoff
dude their tic tockers they couldn't understand a god damned pencil.
A few guys here are defending the jumper saying the danger is minimal so it's not a big deal.
There's also minimal danger that the parachute won't open/get tangled/tear/etc. and he falls to his death.
Douchebag doesn't get to choose that chance for everyone else in the hot air balloon.
For reasons why it actually *_IS_* dangerous for everyone else when you jump like this, refer to the many, many detailed replies in this entire comments section (currently 626).
But also, why in the f would you gamble with the lives of completely unknowing bystanders? Regardless of the level of danger, no one in the balloon had consented to be put into any danger-no matter how “minimal”. He’s moronic and selfish.
Hot air balloons operate within strict mass tolerances loosing 100 + lbs of ballast is extremely dangerous, he's lucky the pilot is nice, he needs your mass you don't have to be conscious for the ride
@@stanfromuzbekistan8282 Unfortunately I doubt the guy and his cameramen who almost died realized their mistake. They don't seem to have the knowledge required to realize that without his weight, the hot air-balloon could of been destroyed. To him the Balloon probably worked on magic and not physics
@@aviator2252 _"he needs your mass you don't have to be conscious for the ride"_ - Well put ✨
I would of had a hard time controlling myself trapped in a small space with someone who was jeopardising mine and everyone else's lives by threatening to jump out.
I am afraid I would of become someone who was also causing a problem by getting in this guys face and telling him if he doesn't take off the parachute I am going to knock him out. Fighting in a small space would of also been a big threat to everyone's safety, and also spoiling everyone's good time. But my fear of my own life, safety and the safety and lives of everyone else would of made me totally focus on him and to assuredly remove the threat of that ballast from exiting the ride.
Professional skydiver here, I could go on and on but others have explained in comments, but anyone saying the danger is minimal has absolutely zero idea what they're talking about.
The amount of work and preparation that goes into sky diving is insane and this guy is trying to do it without even disclosing it.
In all my years I've never seen something so egregious that ABSOLUTELY put the lives of everyone at risk here.
It’s crazy that being absolutely normal is literally Gigachad but in a world of TikTok it’s far too common. Props to the responsible dude
That crew deserve respect.
Baloon guy seems so kind and nice, he just didnt want to risk his passengers and his business smh
If the guy actually jumped, the change in weight by ~200lbs would cause the balloon to rapidly ascend which would create a high chance that the balloon would collapse in and everyone on it would die.
They should make a new law where the punishment for this is a ban from using any kind of social media app
True!
That's already a thing for cyber crimes, they really need to update it for clout chasing related crimes too.
How do you enforce it though
@@HelluGoesstate request to the platform
just make their internet usage & browsing history public record
well he is captain... so you have to do as he says.
I used to work on a balloon crew. We worked at a big skydiving event where we would send skydivers up to jump out of it. We would land the balloon and send more up for a second load every morning. The pilot made his money selling tickets. It’s more crazy to stay in the balloon and hope for a safe landing spot.
Mega props to the Hot Air Balloon operator. Absolute boss, and he potentially saved lives.
"I'm not letting you go, I'm sorry"
Don't be. Man was way too nice
This is his livelihood balloon pilots are licensed and they could take that away, dudes a jagoff!
the guys working there would have gotten the blame
I don't think he realized that him jumping off the balloon would cause the balloon to shoot up due to the sudden loss of weight
A guy locked in his attic since birth has more common sense than all tik tokers combined
Right to jail, straight away!
Every person on that balloon needs to sue him.
My palms were drenched from even the thought of being that high up with a literal lunatic trying to kill himself and everyone else. Kudos for the people that stood relatively calm in spite of a life threatening situation THAT high up in the air.
Social media has ruined everything
Human stupidity has been ruining everything long before social media even existed.
The rig stays, the clockhead can go though.
Imagine having a physical dispute while in a tiny basket thousands of feet above ground. I got vertigo just watching this.
I hope the dude is charged with attempted and reckless endangerment. These attention influencers need jail time.
I like the pilot saying yes i can physically stop you.
I think the pilot handled it well, but it would've been better if he had the guy take off the skydiving rig and give it to him, that way the other passengers wouldn't have been cut short. He could have put it in that box he's standing in.
He knowingly or unknowingly tried to kill all of them by attempting to do this little stunt
People think they can get their way by going "Bro, Come on bro!"
You should've covered the explanation why it put others in danger, given by the balloon operator selfie video. That is the crime explained.
Literally that guy jumping could've sent the balloon crashing down as the loss of ballast (the passenger weight) would've unsettled the very fine floating physics that hot air balloons use and the whole balloon lose the hot air and just become a falling basket with people in it.
Thx, I was so confused why him trying to jump would be bad for others
Someone explain to me. I see a lot of sky diver jump off balloon but they are fine. So i think you guys over react karen. So is that a different kind of balloon? or what?
@@adil0466 You can definitely do it... with the right set up. An unprepared operator wouldn't be able to handle that properly, assuming they even have the necessary training to know how to safely handle it.
@@Midnight-wh2bs I already do a research 2 weeks ago. This guy lie to us.
There is no dangerous jumping in hot air balloon. It will not make the balloon flip or explode. So that's lie.
But to jump you need permission to sky diving ,sky diving licence and sky diving pilot licence. All of that prob cost more than 500 bucks and take alot of time to get it.
So is illegal to jump without those three. All of passenger and the pilot will go to jail too. So is not about the dangerous, is legal issues.
So this guy lie to us about jumping can crash a balloon.
@@adil0466 That is with Proper heads up and preparation.
The tiktoker is attempting to jump without telling anyone.
If the guy wants to do a balloon jump, to actually arrange it with the balloonist... the issue is the weight balance. One person suddenly leaving will float the balloon to potentially leathal heights
Wow you must be a baloon jump expert! How many baloon jumps have you made?
Props for the Balloon pilot!!!
Sudden decrease in weight is very dangerous for the baloon and passengers on board. Flying a hot air ballon is all about balance, you rise, and you descend slowly. Reduce weight by 100 kilo, and the ballon could for example collapse, killing everyone on board.
Losing 100kg wont make it collapse, but will increase height in an increased pace
@@jurgenbuntinx1the rapid descent could cause the balloon to collapse.
@@jurgenbuntinx1 This can actually make the balloon collapse, under low pressure and temperature change it can actually cause the balloon itself to essentially squeeze the air out, as you rise temperatures drop suddenly and air pressure reduces dramatically, the same as it would in space the low air pressure acts as a vacuum for objects like balloons that have high air pressure in a condensed area, it's why planes have sealed pressurised cabins. There are a few other things that can cause a balloon to suddenly collapse but in this scenario with sudden weight loss resulting in an increase in height, this would be a very likely and scary scenario
@@chiggy2206 Heated air has less pressure than cool air, you have it completely backwards.
@@LarsLarsen77
Well, a specific amount of heated air is less dense than cold air and will exert more pressure in a sealed container, such as a car tire, than the same amount of cold air. (This is why you need to add air to your tires when the weather turns from hot to cold.)
You can test this: blow up a rubber balloon. Measure its diameter. Put it in a freezer. Come back in an hour and the diameter will be much smaller.
The reason a hot air balloon rises is because the air inside the balloon is less dense than the surrounding air and it's floating up like a (light) air bubble under (dense) water.
