Achieving the Impossible: Aviation's ultimate challenge to fly nonstop around the world by balloon!
As they float across oceans and smash into the ground, steer around hostile territories and barely survive killer storms, the daredevils who stake their claim to be the first to circumnavigate the Earth in a hot air balloon persistently cheat death.
This thrilling documentary of the gripping voyage behind The Last Great Adventure of the 20th century includes special behind-the-scenes footage of the substantial failures and constant disappointments the brave challengers experience in order to achieve this nearly impossible record.
Enjoy exclusive interviews and an intimate look into every attempt made by the three main challengers, Steve Fossett, an American businessman, Bertrand Piccard, Swiss psychiatrist and grandson of the first man to enter the stratosphere and Richard Branson, self-made British billionaire, while they break rules and put their lives in grave and unforeseen danger.
