My guess is skydiving.

Or, tightrope walking?

    I never walked a tight rope. I don't think I could even in my prime.

    I exit using a line that was connected at the top of the balloon to swing out and do multiple flips. The rope was really long so you would get a huge amount of speed and fling off the end.

    I wanna know what their game plan is when one of the balloons suddenly loses altitude.

    The balloons were moored down.

    How's this?

    Also, in the first picture the walker was blown off because the balloons were tied down. In this picture, the balloons are moving with the wind, so the walker won't be blown off so easily.

    That's another thing about being up in a balloon that surprises first-timers, there's no wind, and it's very quiet, when the burner isn't burning.
