Thread: Using helium to fly

This is going to sound like a very childish method, but has anyone on this site ever used a helium tank to inflate yourself like a balloon in a lucid dream in order to float/fly?

Here is a example of what i mean.

Not personally, but I don't see why not...interesting idea.

I haven't, but my method of flying involves putting myself in a terribly dangerous situation, so it's either success or die trying. I guess that makes my method more childish than using helium!

That sounds like a intresting method

And then you can also experience how an air balloon feels when he's losing all his air because of some hole made by a nasty bird. That sounds like fun.

Although it seems like an interesting and creative idea, I'd rather not.

That would be interesting to experience.

It sounds cute!
I've never had any problems flying in an LD, rather, staying in the ground. In my last LD I had like 5 FA and I flied out of my bed. It now makes me laugh because I felt like Superman.

You don't have any problem with the fact it will make you look round when you do it?

I haven't flied with helium yet, I just flied.
But no, I wouldn't really have a problem
