I'll bet I'm the only person here who's ridden on a blimp? Back in the late 80s the Slice (a defunct soft drink) blimp let you pay a couple hundred bucks and took off from the Oakland airport, floated out over the SF bay and over the golden gate bridge, and returned to the airport, where it was caught rather than landed. Pretty fun.
And that's my blimp story. See if you can top it.
Explain this bit please. Blimps don't come to a controlled stop like every other vehicle in existence?
As someone below said, the blimp drops low to the ground and then about a dozen guys grab onto the lines and pull it down and tie it to the ground. And that's how a blimp "lands".
