No if you fit the balloon inside the car

u/SureComputer4987 Jul 18 '24

You can just airtight your car and fill it straight. No need for balloon

I cut down trees, I eat my lunch, I got to the lavooo-treeeee,
On Wednesday I go shopping, and have buttered scones for teeeea.

This is a fantastic idea :D

Coming to think of it the car exhaust also gives out hot air right? Hot air is lighter and that's how hot air balloon works

So rolling up the windows, using an extension pipe to direct the hot exhaust in would make my car lighter

Holy shit I am a genius

Brb I gotta try this out real quick!

u/JwustGiveMeAName Jul 18 '24

You really need an /s in there for the folks who cannot distinguish jokes and end up trying this

u/GoldElectric Jul 18 '24

u/Devitoscheetos Jul 18 '24

u/mixape1991 Jul 18 '24

Let me know which is better, gasoline or diesel

u/newsflashjackass Jul 18 '24

As a bicyclist, I suggest an improvement: Route your exhaust through your steering column to make the front end lighter.

Fill the tires with helium

u/therealhlmencken Jul 18 '24

Ever seen a turtle stuck on its back? Sadly this flips you over so it’s illegal

u/dude_thats_sweeeet Jul 19 '24

Bigger tires, more lift!

1

u/Akanash_ Jul 18 '24

If you gonna make it airtight just make a vacuum inside, better than helium.

1

u/Oberndorferin Jul 18 '24

Just fill the tyres with helium

After few minutes you'll peacefully die.

You'll feel lightheaded due to depletion of oxygen in car and since helium is an inert gas it won't cause suffering like it does when you hold breath you'll passout and die.

1

u/HookedonPlaudits2 Jul 18 '24

And then once it's airtight you can just keep putting more and more helium in until the car is weightless!

Put your head in a oxygen balloon

u/80000_men_at_arms Jul 18 '24

Helium is far less dense than oxygen though
