Failed Balloon Launch

A group of fund raisers let balloons go with disastrous results. Apparently each one is supposed to represent an orphan child... Poor children!

I imagined the hopes of orphans being lifted into the air. When they finally were released from the net holding them back, Just when freedom seems almost certain they get pulled into a sharp pointy vacuum of death.

Tree: 1
Orphans immortal souls: 0

I hope that those orphans are told that the balloons that did make it in to the atmosphere will eventually pop and fall to the earth, make their way to the ocean where a sea turtle will mistake one or two for a jellyfish eat them, be unable to digest them, and die of starvation on a full stomach.

The road to (Hell) is paved with good intentions.

And now you can sponsor the balloon launch for the charity of balloons that failed to launch for the orphans.

This just in... Madonna wants to adpot all of them.

I was just waiting for that last one to get caught by the wind and pop in the tree too.

Does every single video that shows up on nothingtoxic.com show up on this site a few days later?

It doesn`t matter. Orphans can`t eat balloons or helium. So it doesn`t really matter if they are popped or not

^ Oh, I dunno,
Every time a balloon pops, somewhere an orphan falls down dead.

("And no amount of clapping will bring you back from where I will send you!")

Or maybe, JUST maybe the wind blew them into it.

Well, not everyone can afford NASA`s launch sites. That`s why they used the Mexican one.
