    Nope.
    It would terrify me, due to my fear of heights.
    At least a plane can theoretically glide, and a helicopter can theoretically "auto rotate".
    If something goes wrong with a hot-air balloon, there's no backup.
    You're also at the "mercy" of the wind.

    Nope.  I'll stick to just enjoying the view of them from the ground.

    I did that in Taos, New Mexico some years ago and it was wonderful.  Amazing views from that height.

    Nice pun. And yes, it sounds as if it would be lots of pun. Oops, I mean fun.
