- description: Giant inflatable moon rolls through China An inflatable moon was blown through the city of Fuzhou, rolling over everything in it's path. Giant inflatable moon rolls over people, bikes, cars, city While you’re probably familiar with Nintendo’s Zelda video games and their green tunic-wearing hero Link, you may have missed Majora’s Mask. Yes, the Nintendo 64 game sold fine. Yes, it was and still is critically adored. But Majora’s Mask is also debatably the weirdest and least accessible game in the series. That says a lot, considering another Zelda game is about the dream of a giant flying whale god. I was reminded of Majora’s Mask by the footage above of a humongous balloon — made to look like Earth’s Moon — rolling through the city of Fuzhou in eastern China See, the plot of Majora’s Mask hinges on a child named Skull Kid using the power of the titular mask to crash a moon into the land of Termina in an alternate dimension of the fantasy setting of Hyrule. Like I said, "A Beginner’s Guide to Zelda" this game is not. In Majora’s Mask, the violent impact is cataclysmic, and our hero must repeatedly manipulate time to prevent armageddon. But now I wonder what would happen if, instead of ending the world, the moon just bounced from one object to the next, bringing an unexpected joy to the people of Termina. What would that look like? My best guess is it would look this video from Fuzhou. Or a lot like Katamari Damacy. Anyway, this has been another episode of "Chris Connects Popular, But Niche Video Games to Funny Internet Videos." See you next week! The annual Mid-Autumn Festival begins tomorrow in China, a celebration of many things, but, principally, the moon, which has long been an important totem in East Asia. The moon is also given form here on Earth in many different ways, most famously with moon cakes, but, also, as seen in the video above, with giant moon balloons. This one got loose in Fuzhou, on the southern coast of the country, blown away by strong winds that have arrived ahead of Typhoon Meranti, which could be the strongest typhoon to hit China this year. The video comes from the state-controlled Xinhua News Agency, which didn't say if anyone got hurt. From the looks of it though, the balloon seems relatively harmless, just a big, dark blob, softly bowling over anyone in its path Amateur video shows the part-deflated moon rolling over the top of traffic, pedestrians and a construction site as witnesses laugh at the bizarre sight A giant inflatable moon has rolled around the streets of a Chinese city after being cut loose by strong winds from Typhoon Meranti. In bizarre scenes, amateur video shows the part-deflated moon rolled over the top of traffic, pedestrians and a construction site in Fuzhou, capital of southeast China's Fujian Province. In one scene, a woman pushing a motor bike struggles to make up her mind how to react as she ducks for cover when the moon steamrolls its way towards her.
