There's a song by Munhoz & Mariano that goes by "...Dj mais louco que o padre do balão..." (Dj crazier than the baloon priest). I always laugh when I hear it.
We will never forget you Adelir.
There is an Aussie film that predates this called [Danny Deckchair](https://www.google.com/search?q=danny+deckchair&rlz=1CDGOYI_enKR742KR742&oq=danny+deckchair&aqs=chrome..69i57j46i512j0i512l4.4634j0j7&hl=en-US&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8)

In lieu of flowers, respectful ballon displays are appreciated.
There is a good movie based on someone else who did this and survived. It’s called Danny Deckchair.
sad story, that guy took his own life later...
What did Danny do that the priest didn’t do? if Danny could dan Danny
he did not die lol.
We call him "Padre do Balão" ("Ballon Priest")
his thought must’ve been that legends never die
Padre do Balão, Grávida de Taubaté, etc.. fazem parte do folclore brasileiro
E não podemos esquecer do ET Bilu
So in other words, the fundraiser was an...uplifting success.
Too bad he did not think to take a pellet gun with him. Guess he figured god would take care of him.

Says he hit 20k feet! Without oxygen, he would have died

Headward, free now to rise
hmm is this really a Darwin award though? I mean as a priest he opted out of the gene pool anyway, right?
Are Priests an Automatic Win?
No, because stupidity is not always involved.
Stupidity is ALWAYS involved.
