Here are a couple of clips of the process of setting up and inflating the Farmers Insurance hot air balloon. I got to learn more about ballooning that I thought I would.
A regular fan is used to inflate the balloon first before the burners are turned on. Makes sense. Wouldn't work when the balloon is flat, and would probably set it on fire.
Thanks to our pilot, Tim, for all of the help.
Now the balloon is tested while tethered to make sure the winds aren't too severe.
These videos were taken by our event planners , Bird & Co. Events.
Thank you, James and Andrew.
