Chicago Children’s Museum: Toy store

A Toy Train in Space
You might have seen this kind of ‘stunt’ before. But this time, the boy adds a cute layer to the idea.
On Aug 24th 2012 Ron Fugelseth and his 4-year-old son sent the son’s favorite train “Stanley” to space in a weather balloon with a HD camera and an old cell phone for GPS. He was recovered 27 miles away in a corn field.
Ron Fugelseth explains: “My 4-year-old and Stanley are inseparable like Calvin and Hobbes. He’s been attached to him since he was two, and they play, sleep and do everything together. I animated Stanley’s face with After Effects and Photoshop to bring him to life how I imagine my son sees him.”
Watch another cute video Ron made when his son was 2.
