We're chasing that dream-like feeling of floating free in the air and playing around, be it real or fantasy. Any post type that conveys this feeling is welcome. Check the post flairs for examples.

What qualifies for Floating Is Fun is open to interpretation. I encourage everyone to post what they like to see. Give us a gentle push and we'll float pretty far.

We started on Reddit /r/FloatingIsFun in 2021 and moved here in 2023. All 400+ posts from the original from the original subreddit have been reposted here, so you're not missing anything.

I warned you! This not-subtle ad for Levi's jeans is the dumbest crap I've posted since Fat. For this Jackass reject to float like that, those pants would have to be inflated to about a 15-foot sphere. It's dumb fun, though, and the music is good.

There was a Mythbusters episode a while back that tested how many helium balloons it would take to lift a small kid, which this reminded me of.
