Love this new sign on the Clyde Walkway, but it definitely falls into the Keep Glasgow Weird category. It's one of a number of signs inspired by Science Fiction movies around the city's Science Centre created by A Sign of Humour.

TIL a guy in 1982 strapped 42 weather balloons to a lawnchair and proceeded to reach an altitude of 4900 meters (16,000 feet). Using a pellet gun he was able to pop the balloons and descend safely despite hitting some powerlines on the way down. He was dubbed "Lawnchair Larry" afterwards.
