At the turn of the 20th century a man brought a dirigible airship to Chillicothe, Ohio, for an exhibition. The dirigible lost buoyancy and descended close to the ground a distance away. The next morning the owner decided to tie a rope to it and bring it back to be packed up but needed some ballast to keep it from rising into the sky when the temperatures rose, so he picked a boy nearby, Freddie Meyers, to serve as that ballast, for some odd reason.
