The Chinese were the first to invent the hot air balloon and they were the first to ride it in the 16th century. The inventor and the riders remain unknown.
The first three animals to ride in a hot air balloon were a duck, a rooster, and a sheep. This historic flight took place in 1783 in France, demonstrating the feasibility of manned flight in a hot air balloon.

In a hot air balloon ride, the main forces acting on the balloon are lift, gravity, and drag. The hot air inside the balloon is lighter than the cooler air outside, creating lift. Gravity pulls the balloon downwards, and drag opposes the balloon's forward movement through the air. Flight control is achieved by controlling the amount of hot air in the balloon.
Pilatre De Rozier launched the first hot air balloon on September 19th 1783. His balloon was named the Aerostat Reveillon. He placed a sheep, duck, and rooster in the balloon. The Aerostat Reveillon crashed after fifteen minutes of flight.
