Jonathan Trappe, 36, from Raleigh, NC, became the first person to float across the English Channel using helium balloons. Asked why he went, Trappe replied: "Didn't you have this dream, grabbing on to a bunch of toy balloons and floating off? I think it's something that's shared across cultures and across borders — just this wonderful fantasy of grabbing on to toy balloons and floating into open space."
