Balloon flight in Flanders: Fun Facts

The hot air balloon was invented in 1783 by the brothers Montgolfier. The balloon was made of cloth and lined with white paper. The hot air balloon was unmanned and reached a distance of 2 km during its first flight.

Later in 1783 the first balloon with passengers was sent into the air. These passengers consisted of a sheep, cock and duck and left from Versailles. The flight lasted 8 minutes and reached a maximum height of 500 meters.

After the sheep, the rooster and the duck landed safely, Louis XVI seemed to have a good idea to send the first human passengers into the air. He chose two prisoners sentenced to death and if they survived he would give them pardon. In the event of a fatal outcome, they would still receive their deserved punishment. But not everyone agreed with this. The nobles did not want that if the attempt would succeed, these two criminals as heroes would go down in history. Eventually it was decided to send the scientist François Pilâtre de Rozier and marquis d'Arlande into the air. This flight was successful and the first manned balloon flight was a fact.
