Corrected entry: Reviews of "Up" state that Carl Frederickson attached 20,622 helium-filled balloon to his house. When the floating house is over South America, he cuts only a dozen balloons loose and, amazingly, the house begins to descend.

Correction: There has to be a point where X amount of balloons will raise the weight. It also means that there is a point where the balloons can hold the weight and a point where the balloons can't hold the weight. Since we don't know the weight and the uplift of the balloons it is fair to assume that by cutting 12 balloons it could lower the house.
