Like a fairytale from a Disney movie, a North Carolina man will attempt to make the 2,500-mile solo trip to Europe relying on 370 colorful balloons filled with helium. He lifted up from Caribou, Maine, in the United States

It is a feat that has never been attempted before, but Mr Jonathan Trappe has not allowed that - or the fact that 5 people have died trying to cross the Atlantic in conventional hot air balloons - to deter him.

'I'm just as afraid of dying as anyone,' he said. 'But I go forward in the spirit of adventure, doing something nobody has achieved before, and to live an interesting life.'

A successful crossing will see Trappe fly into the history books as the first person ever to scale the ocean in a flight of this type.

Incredibly, winds could see him land anywhere between Iceland and Morocco after a journey expected to take between three and five days.

Trappe is relying on state-of-the-art weather data from the meteorologist who advised Felix Baumgartner on his record-breaking skydive from the stratosphere last year.

The latest weather reports before the launch suggested winds would take Trappe to western Europe.

How would he land?
By bursting some ballons?

I guess he'll just release the balloons systematically to land. But safe landing is not guaranteed.

Suicide mission! The cold wind can easily burst the balloons if it gets weak. He should donate one kidney first while he is still alive to someone who might need it

Safe journey! Greet lucifer for me when you reach hell fire

If I say "All izz well" its means am just being a learner,cos all is certainly not well with this man!
