'헬륨 풍선 50개' 의지해 애리조나 사막 건넌 남성
For those who have seen the movie 'UP', you may have dreamed of flying up into the sky holding onto a bunch of balloons.
An American illusionist made that dream come true when he flew over the Arizona desert last week, using just about 50 helium balloons.
The 47-year-old extreme performer lifted some seven-point-six kilometers into the sky an altitude where most commercial airliners travel before parachuting safely back to earth.
The groundbreaking stunt by the artist earned over 770-thousand viewers when it was live streamed on YouTube, setting a new record as the most-watched YouTube Originals live event.
And that does it for today's edition of 'The World Now'. I'll be back next time with more updates from around the world.
