Just heard on CNN that a balloon has crashed into a street light at the Macy's Parade this morning. It crashed into the light because of winds. There are injuries being reported.

Wasn't that last year? Or the year before? Seems like that happened in the last year or so, it hit a light and it crashed down and hit someone. Didn't notice the wind when I was watching today, seemed like everything was fine. And I watched almost all of it and did not hear of anything. If someone else knows about it, a link would be great.

Wow. It was in 1997 something similar happened. I thought it was just a few years back. It was 8 years ago! lol. That is scary stuff, looks like if it fell just right it could definitley kill ya.
