A Russian traveler, Fyodor Konyukhov broke the world record for the world tour in a balloon, it took him a little more than 11 days.He began his journey on July 12 rising into the sky from the west coast of Australia. He intended to break the American record of Steve Fossett, that took him 13 days.
On saturday he overcame the last point needed to establish a new record.And is supposed to land before midnight.The son of a traveler and Oscar Konyukhov described the achievement of his father, as a miracle.
I can't even imagine, that the wind can move you so fast, that you can reach the same town, traveling all around the world in 11 days.
Damn about 35000km.. in 11 days..
Would you wanted to try your luck? and travel around the world in a balloon, alone?
