Earlier this month, Swiss chip shop owner Pascal Leuthold decided to launch one of his kebabs into the air, as you bloody well do.
He attached the kebab to a weather balloon and it soared 124,000 feet into the atmosphere, maintaining its beautiful shape and contents all the while:

According to Metro, it returned to the earth frozen solid. Leuthold said:
We are all very proud that we actually managed to pull this off – it took about three months to plan and film. It feels very cool to have launched the first kebab into space.
Some questions: What did they do with the kebab after it came back down? Was it just thrown in the bin like the remnants of any other non-history making kebab? Seems unfair.

The drunken delicacy spent a grand total of two hours in the sky before crashing back down into a tree.
Grace. Elegance.

Zaytoon, we don’t know why you hire a wise kebab doctor if he’s not going to come up with ideas like this. We could have been pioneers.
