BALLOONS- The History of Shooting them Down- The History Guy 2 8 2023

Everything you wanted to know about the HISTORY of BALLOONS and how they have been used by everyone from the US Government to the International Intrigue Cartels. The Testing and Carrying out of Balloons for everything from Experimentation to FEAR OPERATIONS. The Successes and Failures are all kind of interesting. The way that they travel has always been pretty Random until recently. All credit to the History Guy.
How often do we have to call out the military to shoot down balloons? More often than you might think. Some notable stories of balloons gone rogue, drawing military and/or police responses, deserve to be remembered.
