Like, say you had a grain silo or some theoretical structure that would allow you to fill the structure as high as you wanted, full of balloons, all inflated with regular air, not helium.

Is there a point where the balloons’ collective miniscule weight would be enough to pop the balloons on the bottom? Or would they just bounce/float on top of each other forever and ever?

    Have you ever handled a balloon before? They can take way more than a pound of pressure…that’s like barely squeezing it.

      Fair enough, but I still think it’s possible that it would take only 1-2 thousand balloons for them to start popping as long as there aren’t too many on the bottom layer
