way to burst his bubble...

Inventor's bubble bursts

If inventor Charles Blane Jones was feeling a little deflated, it was easy to see why.

His attempt to walk across a pond in London's Hyde Park in a PVC sphere failed miserably when the freezing temperatures caused the bubble to literally burst.

Instead of sailing majestically across the water's surface, he got soaked and had to be pulled in by a rescue cord.

Mr Jones' £500 sphere, which he invented in 1998, has already proved a hit and has been used in TV adverts and international displays.
