How many normal sized baloons does it take to lift a stuffed animal?

Question

It's a pretty light one and i just want it to go a few feet off the ground

Answer 1

It depends on the size of the Stuffed Animal. If its under 1 pound, then I would say 1 or 2. If it's a big heavy one then use like 10-20. Just make sure the balloons are filled with Helium.

Answer 2

It would depend on what gas is used to inflate the balloons.

Answer 3

I would say one or two balloons filled with lots of helium. Probably only one.

Answer 4

No more than 3 or 4; getting it to "hover" is tricky though, and the balloons leak, so the effect won't work for long either: it'll only work as long as the weight and the amount of helium are perfectly balanced. The alternative is that the toy will weigh the balloons down, or be carried off by them to end up suspended from the ceiling (or a few miles away, if you let it go outside!!!)

Answer 5

im guessing 1 or 2 Party balloons filled with helium... but wouldnt it float away and not come back? maybe its just me thinking that.
