British Sculptor's Inflatable Art Work Filled With Helium; Takes Off and Kills Two
Topic: Weird Shit

English artist and sculptor Maurice Agis has made a name for himself creating giant, walk-in sculptures that attract the old and young with their bright colors and large, inviting spaces that are designed for patrons to walk through.  However brilliant his bounce-house creating abilities are, Agis has absolutely no concept for physics, as his latest creation became free of its moorings and took off 18 feet into the air, spilling out 15 people who were trapped inside and killing two women who fell to their death.

Agis's sculpture could have been an even more massive hit instead of garnering world wide acclaim as being full of idiocy, had he filled it with regular air instead of helium, which as anyone over the age of 5 knows is the cause of your Six Flag's balloon flying into a jet engine at 20,000 feet and also the reason your voice goes all squeaky when you inhale the wonderful gas.
