Likewise, filling with helium, the balloon will rise, whereas those filled with air will not.

Although, these balloons is an amazing choice for party avenue.

The Facts

If the sound of the balloon is popping, you are not alone. A bursting balloons actually creates a sonic boom!

Once a hole is made in an inflated balloon, the quick release of the balloon’s energy, or air, causes the hole to grow at almost the speed of sound in rubber.

Since the speed is much higher than the speed of sound in air, the hole in the balloon actually breaks the sound barrier, creating a sonic boom.

When it is released outside, as long as it is tied up and has no structural flaws, it will rise to an altitude of about five miles.

At that elevation it will freeze and break into pieces that scatter as they return to earth.
