Excuse me. |
00:00:27.097 - 00:00:29.898 |
| Hello, I'm Doug Jones,
and today, |
00:00:29.933 - 00:00:31.599 |
| we're gonna talk about
Lawnchair Larry. |
00:00:31.634 - 00:00:34.202 |
| - Cheers.
- Cheers. |
00:00:34.237 - 00:00:36.371 |
| Our story begins in 1962. |
00:00:36.406 - 00:00:39.374 |
| A 13-year-old boy
named Larry Walters |
00:00:39.409 - 00:00:41.809 |
| walks into an
Army Navy Surplus store. |
00:00:41.844 - 00:00:44.345 |
| And amongst the Swiss army knives |
00:00:44.381 - 00:00:46.247 |
| and the heavy duty flashlights, |
00:00:46.283 - 00:00:47.748 |
| he sees right before him
a weather balloon. |
00:00:47.784 - 00:00:50.684 |
| Suddenly, inspiration hits him
like a bolt of lightning. |
00:00:50.720 - 00:00:53.922 |
| He says, oh, my God. |
00:00:53.957 - 00:00:55.556 |
| If I had enough of these
balloons, I could fly. |
00:00:55.591 - 00:00:59.027 |
| He graduates from high school |
00:00:59.062 - 00:01:00.928 |
| and enlists in the U.S. Air Force, |
00:01:00.963 - 00:01:03.330 |
| but due to his poor eyesight,
he's rejected, |
00:01:03.365 - 00:01:07.034 |
| and this devastates him,
but he says, you know what? |
00:01:07.069 - 00:01:10.471 |
| I'm not gonna let this stop me. |
00:01:10.506 - 00:01:12.372 |
