The first hot air balloon was launched in France in 1783, it was created by the brothers Joseph Michel and Jacques Ettienne Montgolfier under the permission of King Louis XVI. Since it was such a new technology and none was sure of how safe it could be, they decided the first crew members and passengers of this flight would be animals, three farm animals in fact: A sheep, a rooster and a duck. It's said that the flight lasted about eight minutes and that the balloon obtained an altitude of about 1,500 feet.
