Probably a good idea, but I'm sure that some folks would still dream up ways to destroy their ride and/or injure themselves.

My only other question is ... how big was this ballon? I've seen the old guy from American Hotrod do this with a styrafoam cup, but it didn't seem to have this much effect!

Might sound crazy but, I had the same explosive situation twice!

First time, blew my Radio Flyer™ six or seven feet into the air!
