The Empire is striking back again, but not in a galaxy far, far away \u2026 Darth Vader\u2019s in action high above the Clifton Suspension Bridge in the UK.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n The hot air balloon is repping the Dark Side on the first day of the Bristol International Balloon Fiesta in Bristol, England. The event is Europe\u2019s largest annual gathering of the big-ass gasbags, attracting more than 130 hot air balloons from around the world.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n Clearly, Vader stands out among the pack \u2026 and has us clamoring for many more \u2018Star Wars\u2019-themed balloons to battle it out in the sky.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n It looks like that\u2019s not going to happen, though \u2026 so we\u2019ll settle for the other cool hot air balloons in the shape of bears, owls, and koalas.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n But, we all know who their father is \u2026 and Mark Hamill<\/strong><\/a> agrees.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n After a horrible, no good, terrible week, there\u2019s nothing quite like a giant floating #DarthVader<\/a> balloon to distract from reality & raise your spirits. #ThanksDad<\/a> https:\/\/t.co\/Js4J0Pb2WK<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Mark Hamill (@HamillHimself) August 8, 2019<\/a>\n
