Different kinds of animals were used to test the machine, and they all landed unharmed after covering like 2 miles. Hot air balloons had been used for a lot of things, and they are still being used today, especially for recreational activities. In the 19th, hot air balloons were used for activities like sport, commerce, travel, etc.
