Unless that car is fake with nothing inside, this cannot be true.

Haha, yeah, the tinsel strength of the tiny string (even if its wire) is not enough to lift a one ton vehicle. Pretty funny though. I doubt it could even be done with hydrogen and weather balloons. Good topic for Mythbusters though! Someone should submit that video to them.

They already did it with a person

Took thousands of balloons to lift a little girl

After watching the video, if that many balloons could somehow lift that car, then one of those columns would easily lift the guys, which they didn't
