Blast warning for China KOL who promotes helium balloon hiking to ease climb
A fitness influencer in eastern China has trended on social media after he created a “lazy man mountain climbing method” by using a helium balloon to lighten the bag he carried on hikes.
The Zhejiang-based blogger, surnamed Pu, released a video on Douyin of him climbing a mountain with a big white helium balloon attached to his bag, attracting 200,000 likes, news website NetEase reported.
“I am carrying the bag, but I don’t feel its weight at all because of the balloon,” the blogger said in his video clip.
“I feel something is dragging me upwards. This should be the way most suitable for lazy men to climb mountains.”
Pu said he invented this idea after seeing a foreign blogger use a balloon to lift a bag and make it float in the air.
Another factor contributing to this novel mountain climbing method is the Hollywood film Up which showed a cluster of balloons raising a house to fly a long distance.
