LAWN CHAIR LARRY ($50,000 – $55,000)

On July 2, 1982, a man named Larry Walters decided it was time to fly.

Not on a plane. Not in a glider – but in a lawn chair!Armed with a pellet gun, a CB radio, and a few sandwiches, Larry strapped 42 weather balloons to a standard lawn chair in his girlfriend’s backyard in San Pedro, California. The plan was simple: float gently a few dozen feet in the air, enjoy the view, and then shoot a few balloons to ease back down. But plans … don’t always go to plan.

Within minutes of cutting the anchor line, Larry rocketed into the sky – not 50 feet, not 500 feet – but to 16,000 feet! That’s commercial airline altitude. Panicked but determined, he began popping balloons to descend, eventually landing safely in a Long Beach neighborhood, shaken but unharmed.

He was greeted by a crowd, a few stunned airline pilots who had seen him midair … and the police.

Turns out, flying a lawn chair into controlled airspace?

Highly illegal.

What does this have to do with Match and Fable’s latest role?

Nothing, really.
