Chinese Spy Balloon- Let's bring it down.

[Aircal]

Since some are wondering why it's not shot down yet. Let's hear some of your most inventive ways to bring it down if it flew over your place. Redneck the hell out of it.

I will start with a portable basketball hoop. Since the pole is a bit longer than 10 feet I would make it into a barrel. Cut a hole in the bottom. Fill a 2 liter soda with just enough water to make it tight but not stuck in the barrel. Drop a metal pipe on top of that. Fire the air compressor up to full pressure. Open the valve into the bottom of my barrel. And fire my metal arrow at it.
Let's hear your solutions!

Lolz this is America nobody's fuckin around with a makeshift cannon when they've got 50 cals ?

Apparently, it's flying around 50,000 to 66,000 feet high. Higher than any current commercial airliner can reach.

No civilian or redneck has anything that's shooting something 9.5 to 12.5 miles straight overhead, let alone with any sort of accuracy.

 

[Aircal]

Hey I am on day 2 of no home internet. Need something to waste my time on. Plus its 15 miles up. Your 50 cal only has a effective range of 1800 yards.

Redneck science doesn't let real science get in the way of rednecking. If it did we wouldn't have snowmobiles running across rivers and lakes...

This sounds like it's a job for the Flat Earth guy building a rocket to prove to everyone the Earth is flat

 

[GoldPanther]

I will try to point it with one of those burning lasers with about 50 magnifying glass' taped in the front, that will melt it.

There's always a way and somebody willing to accidentally kill themselves trying it ?

I think he’s dead, from a failed experiment.

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

He’s now residing 6’ under the earth he was adamant was flat.

A Daredevil Flat-Earther Died After Attempting To Launch Himself 5,000 Feet With A Homemade Rocket

"Mad" Mike Hughes at times said his rocket launches aimed to prove the Earth's shape, but a representative told BuzzFeed News that was all for publicity.

Too bad Elon Musk isn't in this thread. "Hold my beer."

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

Oh they want to look at what's in it you can bet your ass on that one

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

Chances are if it's dissolved into goo it pretty much indicates what they figure.... if it's not and it's all actually scientific instruments you can bet they're going to pull apart the code and see whether there's any other ulterior stuff

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

I bet you they find at least two or three autographs inside of it

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

"Lay off your provocations in the South China Sea" Maybe?

They’ll just find out it’s the same code that’s in the Tik Tok app.

Jet stream zombie epidemic of 2023 is about to get underway

 

[Flyn]

How about the U.S. shows its technical superiority, shoots a few small holes in the balloon and it gently comes down for them to examine?

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

That's the thing is I'm pretty sure most scientific balloon modules are set up with a vent lanyard so that it can dispose of itself safely in an unpopulated area of the ocean. I'm pretty sure they should have been able to figure it out if NASA and our space and science agencies can figure it out

 

[Aircal]

Well shooting it down with Raptors is anticlimactic. Could have at least dropped some guy on top of it and let him slowly deflate it...

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

How? By jumping out of a plane at 100,000’ ? Don’t think the Red Bull dude is ready for it, and Joe Kittenger passed away 7 week ago.

 

[Flyn]

Kingsman chick could have done it.

 

[Aircal]

135000 feet is the record so yea. Jump out a plane and land on it...lol
