We Sent Garlic Bread to the Edge of Space, Then Ate It

This started as a conversation in a pub a few weeks ago, and turned into one of the more ridiculous videos I've ever done. We send home-made garlic bread skyward on a balloon; exposed it to the stratosphere, 35km up; successfully returned it to earth in a protective box; and then ate it. It tasted... cold.

This is about as close as I get to vlogging. Have a look at Barry's video to see his garlic bread and garlic butter recipes; and if you ever want to send anything to the edge of space, you should definitely hire Steve!

"This garlic bread is delicious. It's homemade. Well, apart from the baguette."

That was hilarious.

"Why garlic bread? Beacuse it's delicious, & someone's already done pizza."
Absolutely classic!
And the box snapping shut at 1000m is sheer brilliant! I'm surprised birds didn't attack it on the way up.

Imagine dying because your plane crashes against a piece of garlic bread

It no longer is Garlic Bread... It now is Galactic Bread

This is the “ufo” the pentagon was talking about

[duck-ccqu]

imagine falling at insane speeds from the stratosphere with the only thing protecting you being a small box of styrofoam
the amount of fear that piece of bread must have had

Imagine if Tom Scott just knocked on your door like, “Hi, terribly sorry to bother you, but it would appear my garlic bread landed on your roof.”

That’s why aliens hate people. We act like we are giving them garlic bread and took it back. It makes them look like fool.

[LeventK]

"How does the bread taste?"
*"Out of this world."*

[Antidote-hxif]

I love the fact you did a collab with someone who makes garlic bread

[Ash-zxzo]

“Is it a bird?”
“Is it a plane”
No, it’s a garlic bread

[AsherPostmanMusic]

imagine being reincarnated as garlic bread and then getting to experience this before getting eaten

[VarunArora]

Imagine of this garlic bread came back half eaten
