When I was 8, I was riding in a balloon that got snagged on antennae/pole about 20-25 feet off the ground. The two larger adults and my older brother ended up on top of me once we hit the ground. It hurt. Next time I go up in a balloon, I will either be alone, or with a couple of children to cushion my fall.
