Rescuers scoured the waters off Brazil’s southern Atlantic Coast yesterday looking for a Roman Catholic priest who disappeared after floating into the sky strapped to hundreds of helium-filled party balloons.
Rev. Adelir Antonio di Carli lifted off from the port city of Paranagua Sunday wearing a helmet, aluminum thermal flight suit, waterproof coveralls and parachute in a bid to break a record for the longest time in flight with party balloons… to raise money to fund a “spiritual” rest stop for truckers in Paranagua.

I’m sure god will protect him ;-).
Maybe, maybe not. It’s possible he didn’t raise enough, so God ‘called him home’.
Finally! A religious person who truly believed their fate was in god’s hands. Why else wouldn’t he have a parachute in case something went wrong?
