The first hot air balloon, created by the German Mongols, flew in December 1782 to France and with passengers carried an anecdote and a sheep, which they landed in perfect condition. One day later, Pilatre de Roziers and Arlandes will be the first to experience this type of success, which is to celebrate by toasting a champagne toast. From the llavors the tradition of celebrating with a toast on balloons is maintained.
