TORONTO - Why not release a giant banana in Mexico so it can fly over Texas? That's a Montreal artist's reason for releasing a 985-foot banana-shaped airship into the sky late next year.

The helium-filled balloon, made of bamboo and synthetic paper, is expected to float from Mexico into Texas airspace, where it will circle for up to a month, The Globe and Mail newspaper reported.

It will drift in a low orbit some 12 to 18 miles above the Earth until it disintegrates.

It either won't get off the ground, or it will, but it won't go where they think it will or stay up very long at all.
