now we have cables strung 2000 feet in the air, hmmm I can see a plane flying into this and either crashing or cutting a very expensive balloon loose.
Not to mention what Lighting and storms will do to this thing.
I'm also wondering what volt-amps these things produce. The cable would have to be rather small or it would get weighted down by a thick cable strung 2000 feet in to the air. Seems the only way they could do that is with very high voltage and then step it down here on the ground.
Also, all the random videos that come up after this is viewed are a bunch of "free energy" type videos. Makes me wonder

Some things are meant to be closed. Your mind isn't one of them.
rough figures here , 12 ga copper weight is 1 pound a foot, so you would have a ton of wire(actually a ton 2000 pounds) for 2000 feet, it would take 327 pounds of helium to just lift the wire, but I am sure they are using a high tech carbon fiber or some high strength low weight conductors.
Just looking at the shot at 1:09, the conductors look to be at least 6 gauge, if not 4 or even 2 gauge. They do mention "High strength conductive tether" so who knows what that means.
