The Art of Making an iPhone Fly: A Journey of Balloons and Helium

As I stood in front of the camera, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and nervousness. Today was going to be a day unlike any other, as I was about to attempt something that had never been done before - making an iPhone 7 fly using nothing but balloons and helium. I had always been fascinated by the idea of creating something extraordinary, and my friend Jenna Marbles, who had successfully made her dog fly in a previous video, had inspired me to take on this challenge.

To begin with, I had bought 300 balloons, which seemed like a staggering amount at first glance. But as I filled 50 of them up with helium, I realized that it was going to be a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. The process of filling the balloons took hours, and I had to make multiple trips to Party City to buy enough helium tanks. I was almost scared by the sheer amount of helium I was handling, as I remembered the story of the Hindenburg airship disaster, which had been caused by a helium tank explosion.

Despite my reservations, I was determined to see this through. I spent hours calculating and experimenting with different balloon sizes and arrangements, trying to find the perfect combination that would make the iPhone fly. I also learned a lot about balloon technology during this process, which was both fascinating and intimidating. As I worked on filling up the balloons, I couldn't help but wonder if I was being a little too crazy and stupid for attempting something so absurd.

As I finally started to assemble the balloon stack around the iPhone, I felt a sense of anticipation building up inside me. This was it - the moment of truth. I had spent hours calculating the number of balloons needed to make the iPhone fly, but I still wasn't sure if my calculations were correct. I hesitated for a moment before proceeding, unsure whether to use the "fat stack" method or stick with my original plan.

With only seconds to spare, I made the final adjustments and placed the last balloon on top of the iPhone. The camera crew held their breath as I let go of the iPhone, watching in amazement as it soared into the air. It was a moment of pure elation, and I couldn't believe that my hard work had finally paid off.

The iPhone flew for several seconds before gently touching down on the ground, leaving behind a trail of amazed onlookers. As I caught my breath, I realized that this was just the beginning - I had created something truly extraordinary, and I couldn't wait to see what other possibilities lay ahead. The question now was, how many balloons would it take for me to float? And should I attach a candy bar to the iPhone instead of letting all the balloons go?

For those who are curious about winning a brand new iPhone 8 (which is actually an iPhone 7 without the fly feature), all you have to do is click the link in the description below. The more active you are on social media, the better chance you have at winning. I'll pick the winner in three days and announce it on Twitter just at @Techsmartt.

You know what I'msaying. I'm really excited to do this videoand I haven't done this in forever butdrop a like on this video. Let's try to shootfor 15,000 likes because this is insaneand what I'm about to tell you. You'regoing to literally say Keaton, you're soextra. You're too crazy, I don't even knowif I like it anymore.I'd be lying to you guys if I told youthis is the first time I'm making thisvideo. Basically I bought 300 balloons,like I legit, bought 300 balloons!I filled 50 of them back up there. Ibought helium tanks which I don't knowif you know this. Helium tanks are prettyhard to get and there's like a shortageof helium. So I had to drive around withthese and I almost blew up my car. Rightnow I'm a little scared. That's a lot ofhelium and I don't know if you guys know about theHindenburg. But right now this is theHindon Keep. [All the humanity and all thefaces!]If any sudden movements happen, I think thiscar will explode and it's out for yourboy.So like from all this, I found out thatI'm pretty crazy and kind of stupid. Thisweighs about a pound, like almost about apound and I actually wanted to do like abunch of videos like trying to makestuff fly. So I bought 300 balloons andI filled up 50 of them over there. LikeI spent so many hours filling those upand 50 wouldn't make it fly. So I wentback and got bigger balloons but what'skind of crazy is I had to go to threeParty Cities to buy 300 balloons.[I'm at a new Party City! I think theymight have 200 balloons, hoping!]I bought out three Party Cities worth of balloons.I do birthday parties if anyone wants toknow. I'm that balloon animal man. I'm alittle weird but I will make you thecoolest dog you've ever seen ever! Okayso enough talk, what I actually did is Igot bigger balloons with more helium. Sothese things are huge and it should onlytake like a few to make this phone fly.This weighs about a pound, 50 didn't doit. I don't really know why it didn't doit. So I think at like the end I'm goingto be like a ceremonial fly away becauseyou don't know how much time it took to fill up50 balloons and imagine if I had to dolike 300. So I'm gonna go ahead andjust start filling these up. I'm going tospeed it up a little bit because like noone wants to see me fill a bunch ofballoons and there's a good chance a fewthese could pop and I might scream alittle bit. So you go! I am the balloonmaster after like all of this!Are we good?Is there a hole! You're joking me, therecannot be a hole, what!Oh there we go, had to get the tip allthe way in the hole, there we go.There's a hole in the balloon! What!How is there a hole?So I'm done filling balloons for the second time. I don't actually know howmany I filled up, so comment down belowhow many you think this will take. Firstperson to guess, it I'll pin your comment.Oh, I hope this works!Oh, I don't want to go back to Party City.Oh yeah, this is definitely gonna work!Here comes the big moment. I really don'twant to go back to Party City.Don't make me go back to party city.Okay, here's the big moment we're going to seeif it can actually fly! Three-- oh I needmore tape,I need a lot more tape. Thatwas so anti-climactic.Okay attempt number,eighty-million ninety-four three-hundred two thousand!Will it fly?This is not that simple! I've learned so much about balloon technologythrough this entire thing. Okay will thiswork now? We're so close! We might beusing the fat stack for both of these. Wait, we should.I think I'm gonna use the fat stack of balloons.And we're going to get this. Okay so ifyou guessed the number of balloons that I'mabout to use. I'm using the other onesthat I filled up because ten isn't likedoing it or whatever.I don't even know how many it is. Okay, the iPhone's likeright here. You guys can kind of see theiPhone. Here comes the big moment. Willthe iPhone fly? Please work! Yes, I did it!The iPhone is flying! Yes, yes, this is working!I made the iPhone fly!
