Jack drops the gun, and it falls to the ground. Jack can’t shoot more balloons. The chair goes up and up.
Jack is three miles above the ground. Airplanes are flying over him and under him Jack has a small radio. “ Help! Help!” he says into the radio. “ I’m flying in a chair, and I want to come down!” People hear Jack, but they can’t help him.
