    The Flying Priest

    Obviously one ought not to make a joke about a likely fatality, but this item does suggest all kinds of wisecracks

    They've found the balloons, but no priest. Of course, if he does survive, it will be a god-given miracle. If not, it'll be - well, a fatality.

    It's not nice to poke fun at such a tragedy, so I guess I'm not a nice person. As Homer Simpsons said "It's funny because it's not me"

    I wonder if he was a creationist. If so the irony of getting a Darwin award would be delicious.

    Here is a link to the latest BBC report on the discovery of the balloons.

    I will say that, on a human level, I hope he survives. He would undoubtedly use the abysmal God Saved Me lines and all that goes with them, but at least his life would not have been wasted.
