Huge Balloon At Tower Bridge For Disney Movie UP

In what is claimed to be a new aeronautical feat, more than 500 mini balloons were woven together to create a huge hot air balloon which sailed through London’s famous Tower Bridge for the launch of the new Disney-Pixar movie, UP.

Sleepy city commuters must have been rubbing their eyes and taking a second look as they caught site of the illuminated balloon sailing down the Thames.

UP is a comedy adventure about 78-year-old balloon salesman Carl Fredricksen who ties thousands of balloons to his house and flies away to the wilds of South America.

The premiere will be on Sunday at the British Film Institute (BFI) on London’s Southbank.

The film will be in cinemas next Friday.
