Now THAT.. is a more tricky question. Because, uh, if the balloons are actually hooked up like in the movie its going to completely rip the house apart.
it would be possible if the ballons are placed with almost pinpoint accuracy and foresight of all the events that will happen in your journey and nothing moved inside during the whole time as any action would add weight to a specific part ripping it to total pieces.
That's probably why guinness refused to acknowledge it; didn't want copycats adding more latex to the rivers while draining more precious helium. It wouldn't be the first time; they've refused to acknowledge any attempts to break the world record for longest time spent awake, out of concern for the health of any such copycats.

Okay but like jokes aside how rich were Phineas and Ferb? Now that it's all out on Disney+ I've been binging some episodes and keep wondering how much money it would cost to build an roller coaster or an entire beach.
And how do you fit 20 million balloons within 50 feet of the house? I'm pretty sure the total balloon bubble would have to be at least a thousand feet tall, so you would need much longer string, which would take even more balloons to support, which would be even farther away from the house and take even more string.
@@massey81 you can tie *A* balloon to *A* balloon. You can't tie twenty million balloons to a balloon. In fact, with that much weight shifting, even the slightest breeze is likely to rip thousands of balloons open, and a little bump of turbulence would send a wave of weight through those balloons that would smash the house into a pile of rubble on the beach.
here's another thing that's not often accounted for: that number of 31.5 million balloons is only applicable to if the house is just sitting there and not attached to the ground, like the house is showed to do when he takes off
Also how would the suport structure of the house hold up? In the film all the balloons are connected donw through the chimney meaning the force of lift the baloons are creating is not evenly spread across the structure of the house which would also mean that part of the chimney and roof would just be torn off. The balloons would have to be arranged in such a way that it's creating equal force on the supports of the house.
What about the fact that we're dealing with latex and direct sunlight. Not going to lie, that house is going to come crashing down mere minutes after it starts to fly... Latex and sunlight don't go together very well... :3
My theory for Up isn’t about the balloons from the house, my theory is that Carl is actually dying and the Boy Scout (who says he needs to help Carl cross something like a road or something like that) is actually an “Angel” that is there to help him cross to the other side. And his final destination is called Paradise falls...
6:00 Hang on a second. The balloons and “helium” in up are shown in the first few minutes to lift the metal balloon carrier cart at the zoo with only a few balloons. Therefore, if this Up Helium is stronger than our IRL helium, it should theoretically take much less balloons than 31 Million.
'Preciate your argument there to keep the dream alive, but if a bundle of roughly 50 balloons (I used to work at a party store, so I know that a bundle of 50 would be about that size) could lift a cart, supplies, AND 4-6 tanks (which weigh a ton in of themselves), one balloon would easily be able to carry a kid off into the sunset, and would most likely be outlawed due to public safety...
Jesse Warner Sure! But my main point in this is that the “Up Helium” is a factor MatPat did not take into account. Of course, it is hypothetical, but still. Imagine if we were able to get our hands on a intense version of helium, the number would be lower and the believability and price of being able to lift a house would be cheaper and more plausible! :D Flying houses for everyone!
The REAL question: can a house, originally designed to merely be a house, maintain structurally integrity while floating? Let me tell you, wood loves to shift, sag, and flex.
@@oldered5663 in reality, probably make a steel platform under the house, welded and reinforced to stay solid, and tie the balloons to the platform. Maybe some slight walls up to keep the house from sliding off.
Also, in UP all the balloons are held in one point at the top of the house. Even if you had enough balloons to lift a full two-story house, it would guaranteed break near that point.
the string thickness would add up, not to mention the line would have to get longer as the center filled up so it could go out the sides. thats a good question!
Miirrorz people have been doing this for quite a while. If you type anything in a comment section nowadays, odds are a bot will respond using a link to self promote. It’s shady and kinda scary. Just ignore them
you didn’t even talk about how many baloons you would need to break the supports that keep the house on the ground. Edit:some of you say just break the supports but I am going by the movie and in the movie when the house get lifted off the ground you can see the supports where not broken before the house started to fly and the supports where in good condition when the house started to life in to the air. I am editing this again because someone made the same comment as me but just so you know I my comment came first,
Hey Matt so I was just wondering what are the odds that cinderella was the only person in the village they could fit the glass slipper. Love your vids btw.
It would actually be impossible to float a house that weight with balloons, because as you get more balloons you begin to need more fishing line to connect them to the house, and the length of line would end up weighing more than 9 grams (the calculated lifting force of a helium balloon) well before you actually had enough balloons, from there, adding more balloons would have a negative effect, and so the house could never fly.
11:17 Not to mention that if he were blowing up the balloons on his own, they would deflate by the time he actually filled and tied the full 31,150,319 balloons. At the very least he'd need more than a few extra hands, but judging by how he treats strangers, that doesn't seem very likely.
"How many balloons does it take to lift a house?" Once, Pixar themselves said that they animated over 350,000 balloons when Carl first makes the house fly. I don't remember where it was published, but I think it was in a Boy's Life magazine somewhere from January 2016-December 2018. Edit: OMG! 342 likes?! Thank you SO much!!!!

well not nessicarily. if the are made of a strong or reinforced type of rubber, and lightning does not strike any one of those balloons, it is possible
As someone who works with balloons, I know that there is a certain amount of time a balloon floats. If you were to do something like this, you'd need a lot of hi-float for the letex balloons, increasing the total amount of money to do something like this.
Really gonna talk about the up scene making you cry? Ever heard of Clannad and Clannad After Story, I don’t know a single person who didn’t cry to that series
MatPat, if you see this comment, PLEASE WATCH CLANNAD AND CLANNAD AFTER STORY!!! It is one of the best series I have ever seen and if that scene made you cry, this series will mess you up. It is a bit of a watch (Just under 50 episodes between the two, but trust me you won’t regret it) also it would be really easy to make all kinds of theories on it, you really should check it out
In my exam you did get points for the answer you also got points for showing your work as long as certain things were done and that was around 2001-2003
Hydrogen is more dangerous than Helium I did some research on hydrogen and many of aerostats were filled with it exploded And I think it's a lot expensive than helium
I'm surprised he didn't mention that fishing line would not be strong enough to hold under the strain of lifting a house. And the center balloons would be crushed by the outer balloons since they're all attached from the chimney instead of being spread out. The house itself would not survive being suspended and would break apart.
He might be the imagination of the narrator describing the engines as sentient... but some of these are kinda hard to answer, too. The trains can feel pain, but aren’t the entire train, they have boilers and work with steam...
Heres my question- How did the house stay on the ground before he released the balloons from the chimney? It's not like they're tied to anything but the house at any point Why did keeping them in the house not either A. Cause the house to float or B. Simply rip the roof off since the upward force was enough to rip the house off the foundation.
the boyscout doesn't have to be a kid, most people who were boy scouts eventually grew up. also technically the scout masters are boy scouts, and they're old enough to be legally responsible for the lives of numerous children.
4:00 - Actually, the Queen Anne style isn't that heavy ( with the exception the brick versions), as wood has a low density. If the house was a stone cottage or tiny castle, then it would be very very very heavy compared to a wooden building of the same size.
Or signed the contract with Buy n Large, but pay a construction company to take apart his house piece by piece, ship it to Paradise Falls, and rebuilt it there.
His house is supposed to be “his wife” or what he thinks of it at least. It doesn’t make much sense story wise to go there without his wife/what he has left of her.
I heard that the balloons used in the movie were designed to be twice the size of a normal balloon otherwise they would’ve looked like just a bunch of tiny colorful dots
4:10 this reminds me, Carl and Ellie often postponed their trip to Paradise falls to repair their damaged stuff, they bought heavier tires, medical bills, and even a heavier roof when a tree falls on it
That amount of force generated from the Balloon Estimate would be EQUAL to the Houses weight. So there's be just as much force pulling the house UP, as there would be pulling the house DOWN. So the House would have a Neutral Buoyancy in the air, so you'd need A LOT more balloons in order to actually achieve lift off. Not to mention, the amount of balloons required to actually rip the house from its foundation. So probably TWICE as many balloons would be required to generate a good take off speed, plus enough force to rip it from the foundation.
@@cutepandavsk he still won't be able to go to the cliff place Idk what it's called I haven't watched it in such a long time(I was 6 when I watched it)
You know what Mat, when you brought up the "teeny tiny little problem," I genuinely thought that the wind would be so slow the move his heavy house that Carl would die of old age or dehydration (depending on whether or not he had supplies) long before he'd get there.
There's one detail, I was waiting to hear, and it sounded like you were going to say. But, Carl's house had to break away from the foundation, which points to an extra question. How many more, balloons, and how much extra helium, until you have the force needed to break away from the foundation? You spoke about the weight of the foundation, but not breaking away from it. And, when a balloon is tied down, then it usually has a harder time, fly- er- floating away. So, there for, additional force, would be needed. Awesome video, by the way! I love, Film, Game, and (now) Food Theorist. I can't get enough, of any of them!
@@TheHappyMadi They got down by loosing air in the balloons naturally, and cutting some of the balloons loose, little at a time. That part they showed us in the movie.

He didn’t need to steal the balloons. He sold balloons when he worked at the zoo, probably hoarded some and stocked up over the years.
Tyler Racero Is that not stealing?
Psh249 Psh249 You get it!
As someone who works with balloons, I know that there is a certain amount of time a balloon floats. If you were to do something like this, you'd need a lot of hi-float for the letex balloons, increasing the total amount of money to do something like this.

Up: the movie with the scene and song with no lyrics that will always make you cry
I never cried I just don't find it sad
Really gonna talk about the up scene making you cry? Ever heard of Clannad and Clannad After Story, I don’t know a single person who didn’t cry to that series
MatPat, if you see this comment, PLEASE WATCH CLANNAD AND CLANNAD AFTER STORY!!! It is one of the best series I have ever seen and if that scene made you cry, this series will mess you up. It is a bit of a watch (Just under 50 episodes between the two, but trust me you won’t regret it) also it would be really easy to make all kinds of theories on it, you really should check it out

@@swmpy4158 i think u replied to the wrong comment bro
What if he used hydrogen instead of helium and somehow avoided pulling a Hindenburg. Would it work
OH THE HUMANITY
Hydrogen is more dangerous than Helium
I did some research on hydrogen and many of aerostats were filled with it exploded
And I think it's a lot expensive than helium
Can I point out that he mentioned how those balloons are known for static?
One tiny spark such as the balloons rubbing together and-KABOOOOM
It’s less expensive, I know this because old zeppelins used hydrogen because it’s cheaper hence why the Hindenburg used it
@@exudeku alternatively:A close call
I'm surprised he didn't mention that fishing line would not be strong enough to hold under the strain of lifting a house. And the center balloons would be crushed by the outer balloons since they're all attached from the chimney instead of being spread out. The house itself would not survive being suspended and would break apart.

You didn't cover one tiny detail:
The house was ripped from it's foundation
seko seko 11 leave
He did
Also im pretty sure the fishing line would snap from all that
I was thinking that same thing. Would the force of the balloons be enough to rip up the plumbing pipes and stuff?
my thoughts exactly
Short answer: All of them.
Long answer: Still all of them, but explained.
Ok but I have two more questions
1)would the strings just NOT break under all that weight
2)WHERE would you tie the strings to
Heres my question- How did the house stay on the ground before he released the balloons from the chimney? It's not like they're tied to anything but the house at any point
Why did keeping them in the house not either A. Cause the house to float or B. Simply rip the roof off since the upward force was enough to rip the house off the foundation.
Answer: this is a cartoon.

Hi, I'm Chris Hansen. Why don't you take a seat?
That intro tho. The nostalgia hits hard.
I for one always have a Boy Scout
the boyscout doesn't have to be a kid, most people who were boy scouts eventually grew up. also technically the scout masters are boy scouts, and they're old enough to be legally responsible for the lives of numerous children.
4:00 - Actually, the Queen Anne style isn't that heavy ( with the exception the brick versions), as wood has a low density. If the house was a stone cottage or tiny castle, then it would be very very very heavy compared to a wooden building of the same size.

Or signed the contract with Buy n Large, but pay a construction company to take apart his house piece by piece, ship it to Paradise Falls, and rebuilt it there.
His house is supposed to be “his wife” or what he thinks of it at least. It doesn’t make much sense story wise to go there without his wife/what he has left of her.

Don't forget that helium leaks out of latex baloons, by day 5, most of the ones you already filled will deflate

Unless of course you could reverse engineer the same device thst fills multiple water ballons with water likr bunch of ballons

When your childhood is ruined yet again:
Man, that’s double Baltic.
*Jerome Doby*
Matt actually made the reference in the video at 7:13
All the Baltics
That amount of force generated from the Balloon Estimate would be EQUAL to the Houses weight. So there's be just as much force pulling the house UP, as there would be pulling the house DOWN. So the House would have a Neutral Buoyancy in the air, so you'd need A LOT more balloons in order to actually achieve lift off. Not to mention, the amount of balloons required to actually rip the house from its foundation. So probably TWICE as many balloons would be required to generate a good take off speed, plus enough force to rip it from the foundation.
MatPat: There's just one more thing standing in Carl's way
Me: The balloons would pull the house apart before it lifts them?
It would not get off the ground because of the foundation

@@dmace14 go watch the Food Theory episode about the McDonald's Monopoly game.
There's one detail, I was waiting to hear, and it sounded like you were going to say. But, Carl's house had to break away from the foundation, which points to an extra question. How many more, balloons, and how much extra helium, until you have the force needed to break away from the foundation? You spoke about the weight of the foundation, but not breaking away from it. And, when a balloon is tied down, then it usually has a harder time, fly- er- floating away. So, there for, additional force, would be needed.
Awesome video, by the way! I love, Film, Game, and (now) Food Theorist. I can't get enough, of any of them!
good point. I may be a year late, but It's totally feasible that the house was manually seperated from the foundation in some fashion prelaunch
And how would they get down exactly? would it work the same way plausibly?
@@TheHappyMadi They got down by loosing air in the balloons naturally, and cutting some of the balloons loose, little at a time. That part they showed us in the movie.
I love how mat answered both of my questions before I could ask (money cost and time)
