Have you ever wondered “how is a hot air balloon inflated?”

At the Albuquerque Balloon Festiva, I had many opportunities to witness the hot air balloons opening up. I filmed this one for you. It is amazing.

It should answer your questions like:

• How do they get the air in there?
• How many people does it take?
• How long does it take?
• When do they add the fire?

I hope you like it!  They are posted in certain order so you get a sense of how they did it.

The third video is of the balloons at night.  The night balloons was the highlight of my trip!

** One Note:  In the video I called the officials “tigers”.  They are “zebras”.  I was so excited I got confused! 🙂
