These guys spend a lot of time pulling paragliders out of trees.
Imagine their surprise when they found an EVIL balloon, instead!

Firefighters say that manufacturing, selling, transporting or releasing balloons is an environmental crime and can lead to imprisonment for 1 to 3 years, and a fine. Exposing to danger the life, physical integrity or property of another person results in a prison sentence of 1 to 6 years and a fine. The balloon was sent to the 105th Police Station.
