Couldn’t agree more. My Saturday morning bike ride takes me along a river trail which then merges with a path that runs alongside a freeway. About 20 minutes after seeing this I watched one of the others land and rapidly deflate (importantly in that order) in a park right next to the four-lanes-in-either-direction freeway. 50 metres further south and it could have been disastrous.

I get the city offers plenty of cool stuff to see from above, but in the absence of steering I’m surprised they’re allowed to do this here by both the aviation authority and their insurance companies.

In an undisclosed supermarket in an undisclosed city of the southern hemisphere…

In a bad translation:

It is forbidden to put children in the basket

I´m pretty sure they were talking about another basket…

I’m all for the scientific method but I’m going to come straight out and just say we shouldn’t.
Even though I have one or two ideas.
