There was a guy who did this with a lawn chair and helium ballons. Yes, he did get fined by the FAA.

Reaching almost 5000 meters is very impressive, and I love the plan of popping the balloons with a BB-gun to control the descent. I’m almost annoyed that they fined this unique effort.

I wonder what was the plan in case the gun got jammed.

I don’t think there was a plan B. A lawn chair strapped to 42 balloons doesn’t seem like a project without single points of failure.
