That was awesome. I laughed out loud at that one. I would guess that water balloon to be about 100 pounds.

If I ever found out that my kids did something like either of those videos...well, after they recooped, I'd have to take them in for a brain check!

That balloon had to weigh at least 40 pounds, probably more.
