Master Chief made out of Balloons

June 02, 2008 in Photos comments 14

This Balloon Guy has made an almost life-sized Master Chief out of balloons. He is based out of Provo, Utah and says he will make almost everything as long as it family friendly. He has also made Mario out of balloons, as well as other things.

We'll admit to not following advancements in balloon animal technology, so we were understandably blown away to see this nearly life-sized Master Chief inflatable construction—clearly not an animal. This is the stuff of dreams and nightmares, the work of a balloonsmith known as Balloon Guy, a master of the latex folding arts. Based out of Provo, Utah, Balloon Guy says he'll make almost anything "as long as it's family friendly." He's also in possession of a rather dapper vest!

Balloon Guy has an equally impressive/horrific Mario on display, but some of these things are not for the queasy. Regardless of what potential nightmares await, we've yet to see such an impressive display of video game characters constructed of balloons, like, ever.

        I think I'd rather take dual spikers.

          Strange, I would have thought you would be more interested in putting the Mario one with a hedgehog in a small cage and waiting.

        What the hell is a needler? I guess it's an American name for something (like a NEEDLE)?

    Aww. When I was a kid, the clown at one of my friend's parties struggled making a simple dog.

    I wish they'd employed this guy instead.

    Imagine how long that would have taken to make, you'd need a whole bunch of balloons and to really know what you are doing. I'd love to pop that thing so much. 8D
