Our Take:
Butterfly swarm animated kinetic hot air balloon hanging spinners have great visual appeal as they rotate in the wind. The graphic actually appears to move as it spins. Enjoy color in motion as the heavy duty swivel lets them spin endlessly. The balloon is 16-inch high and has a 12-inch diameter. It comes with an attached 26-inch curlie tail.
Fun Facts About Hot Air Balloons:
“The hot air balloon is the oldest successful human-carrying flight technology. It is part of a class of aircraft known as balloon aircraft. On November 21, 1783, in Paris, France, the first untethered manned flight was performed by Jean-François Pilâtre de Rozier and François Laurent d’Arlandes in a hot air balloon created on December 14, 1782, by the Montgolfier brothers. Hot air balloons that can be propelled through the air rather than just being pushed along by the wind are known as airships or, more specifically, thermal airships (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_air_balloon).”
