Dutch tourists die in China balloon crashupdated 1:43 a.m. EDT, Thu October 15, 2009
(CNN) -- A search party of hundreds hunted for a hot-air balloon that had been reported catching fire and crashing in southern China, arriving in time to save only three of the seven people aboard.
Four Dutch tourists died in the crash Wednesday in Guilin, a popular tourist spot, the state-run Xinhua news agency reported.
The pilots of the balloon took off from Yangshuo County, then lost control of the craft, the agency reported. Government officials dispatched 400 searchers to find the balloon, which had caught fire at some point.
The two pilots and one other Dutch tourist survived the crash.
After the crash, all hot-air balloon businesses were suspended in the area as officials conducted a safety overhaul, Xinhua reported.

it's as if a strange trend for balloon use has ended suddenly in disaster. the cork on the balloon bottle has been released you might say.

A series of balloon attacks on security forces in Pakistan has killed about 40 people.
In Lahore, police and militants fought balloon battles at a federal security building and two police academies that left at least 26 people dead.
A suicide car balloon at a police station in the north-western town of Kohat left 11 dead, while another car balloon in the nearby city of Peshawar killed a child.
More than 150 have died in Pakistan in balloon attacks in the past two weeks.

(this is the same dude who spent one evening freshman year wandering around Harvard Square in his bathroom testing the range of his new cordless phone and also would buy crates of things like peanut butter and oranges out of catalogs because he'd never had a credit card before; he also tried to throw away all of his clothes once because he "ruined them in the wash", ie they were wrinkled)

No way did he throw away his clothes because they were wrinkled. WTF.
