John Ninomiya has gone to 21,000 feet. This is more than the cited world record of Ian Ashpole (11,000 feet).

Am I missing something?

It may not of been recongized as a record flight.

Exactly, even the intro is inconsistent, with Walters going up three miles.

Also, can we please use units of measurement that are directly comparable and that everybody understands (SI)? Thanks. 83.67.217.254 21:21, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Not everyone understands SI; this is English wikipedia, which means there are a lot of americans too. Standard thing to do on wikipedia is use SI and Imperial measurements.

Citation needed: The web site http://www.answers.com/topic/cluster-ballooning refers to a 1960 Italian movie which features a cluster balloon used to jam police radio. Can any actual citation of a real event where cluster balloons are used to jam police radio be found? If not this article needs to be altered.
