    That "Flying Water Balloons" bubble reaches from about 10-3 to 102 kg. That's 1mg (kinda' hard to manipulate) to 100kg (very hard to lift, especially without breaking the balloon). -- Dtgriscom (talk) 16:59, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

    Firstly: you seem to mix-up g and kg. Secondly: Water balloons can leak, assuming the 10-3 (which is 1g) wasn't measured while it popped in flight.172.71.99.171 10:39, 12 March 2025 (UTC)
