Historical Hotties Season 2 Episode 22: Aeronauts.
“The world’s a nicer place in my beautiful balloon. It wears a nicer face in my beautiful balloon” 60's easy listening group The 5th Dimension has never been more relevant than today, when we pit balloonists The Montgolfier brothers against Sophie Blanchard to see who can travel around the world in 80 days and who can win our hearts in 58 minutes.
