To prove the strength of a new superglue, a Russian TV producer hung upside down from a hot air balloon 5000 FT in the sky held only by glue! If you live in the US, you have a much better chance of dating Taylor Swift then dying from bird flu. 345 FT above sea level, Britton Hill is Florida's highest point- but making it the lowest high point in the country!

If he was wearing shoes….wouldn’t you say his shoes were holding him up and not the superglue? Good thing his laces were strong and tied tight.

He must not have up very long because dead skin cells would have released him

Britton Hill hasn’t been Florida’s highest point since the Condo Developers figured out that you could sell Beachside Condos for Outrageous Prices to people from “Up Nawth” who were unclear on the concept of Hurricanes..Even Taller as a whole Bunch of Bank Buildings because we all know how Bankers like to stack their BS as High as Possible..Tallest is a Hotel in Miami, The Four Seasons at 789 feet.

I don’t know how they calculated the odds of dating Taylor Swift vs. getting bird flu, but just dividing the number of people Ms. Swift has dated by the (male?) population of the U.S. is not going to give an accurate number for most people. I can conceive of a scenario where I might die from the bird flu. I can’t conceive a scenario where I would date Ms. Swift.
