Submission + - Oregonian repeats the feat of Lawn Chair Larry

Submitted by ChristTrekker on Wednesday July 11, 2007 @02:19PM

ChristTrekker writes: The Bulletin of Bend, Oregon is reporting that 47-year-old Kent Couch has duplicated the stunt that made Larry Walters famous: flying to over 10,000 feet on a lawn chair with the help of helium balloons. Couch says he was inspired by a Mythbusters episode addressing the 1982 event.
