A beautiful spectacle and terrible consequences. See why 1.5 million balloons released at once in 1986 proved to be a worse idea than we first imagined.
Years 1986 are in Cleveland, Ohio volunteers in cooperation with the United Way filled the car with helium million and a half balloons and released them all at once. Hours and hours of work ended up backfiring into the deaths of two people and millions of dollars lost through lawsuits.
So what is the story, see in the gallery!
A tragic story, but a lesson worth sharing.
