Hang from a tree with the Treetent balloon shaped tent

Ever wanted to live inside a hot air balloon?

I don't mean in the basket, I mean right in the balloon itself? If so, the Treetent is as close as you may ever get. This odd looking, balloon shaped tent hangs from a tree so that you can camp without having to sleep on the ground. On a windy night you'd even get rocked to sleep.


It's not something you can throw in your backpack on your next hike, though - it has a hardwood floor that is nine inches in diameter, a round bed that comfortably sleeps two, and "adjustable planetary landing steps" (I don't know exactly what those are, but they sure sound fun) to get in and out. It's 13 feet high in total, so you need a pretty tall tree to hang it from. You need an even bigger wallet, too - this little beauty sells for the truly ridiculous price of $50,000.
