Lawn chair Larry really made his flight though it may not always
be reported accurately--e.g. no helicopter rescue, he came down

at on a sunny day the lift may increase as the gas in the bag
heats up. It will also increase if the pilot loses his lunch
or pees in his pants in flight.

Agreed. Lunch goes overboard and net weight decreases.

or pees in his pants in flight.

Disagreed. Pee stays in pants and does NOT reduce net weight.

Oh he'll lose weight as it evaporates!
