Physically it is impossible. The air would rush through the bottom of the balloon so quickly that it would fill up fast and pop quickly.

A helium balloon or a G.I. Joe parachute. If you drop it straight down, the force of gravity will bring it straight down and easily be crushed. When you use the balloon or G.I. Joe parachute, air resistance is applied, and your egg will make a smooth landing! However, any material could be useful that won't leave breakfast on pavement. P.S.

How did the parachute come about?
There are many theories about how the first parachutes came about. Some say Chinese acrobats used umbrellas as the first parachutes. Another story is that in the late 18th century, the first balloons were invented. They were filled with hot smoke into a canvas balloon and the passenger was suspended in a basket held by a net surrounding the balloon. On one occasion, the balloon accidentally burst and formed a parachute inside the envelope of the net around it. The first person to actually make an intentional parachute jump was Frenchman Garnerin in around 1793. The parachute was designed as an escape for the early aeronauts who flew their balloons. Technology for parachutes only improved when some decided to jump for pleasure at festivals and other public events.
Is the parachute an improvement over previous technology?
The idea of the parachute appears to go back to Leonardo Da Vinci, but human carrying ones were not made until the hot air balloon in the 1700s.
