The record of world's largest manned balloon has not been broken since
about a decade ago. This record is held by a certain balloon named Stratos
that weighed 2 tons, stood 334 feet tall and occupied 180000 cubic feet.
The balloon was launched in the New Mexican desert lands and was made
using 0.0008 inch thick translucent polyethylene with a total payload of 1360
kg, including a capsule. However, the main purpose of making this balloon
was not to break the aforementioned record but rather the record itself was a
result of the specifications required for its main purpose. The balloon
eventually landed but only after it was completely deflated mid-air once its
purpose was fulfilled.
What was the balloon's main purpose?

The original one, invented by Taiwanese inventor Tsao-i-Shih, was designed
based on an essential object that is used in something which is a popular craze
and an activity of leisure in his country. The design has been modified today to
look like a similar essential but in a different activity of leisure.
The working principle of it is very simple. It consists of one internal grid of metal
wires sandwiched between two external grid of metal wires. The 3V offered by the
battery is upgraded to 650V by a transformer which is supplied to the external
grids. The supposed subjects are supposed to enter this grid network and they
naturally offer a very low electrical resistance, causing sparks.
What is being talked about in this question, which is a familiar object mainly used
in the third quarter of the year in India?

oblong shield that the Greek soldiers used.

The villages of Kankapur and Kareli are a few kilometres away by crow’s flight and
are on either bank of a certain river. The only recommendable travel route between
these two villages, however, is by road which requires one to go about 20
kilometres east of this region, cross a bridge and come back.
This is because of the tidal nature of the river here with an estuary situated
closeby. Thus, a shortcut route via boat or foot is highly not recommended and
even the idea of building a bridge has been turned down. Some tourists, however,
try to cross the river on foot and sometimes have got stranded by trying to recreate
what a large group did about a century ago. What they don’t know was that these
people actually had to wait till 3 am for the low tides to turn in to cross.
Who were these people who might have been the only ones to cross the river here?
