St. Louis Children's Entertainer Risks Business to Save His Life

Fenton, MO January 7, 2010 – Local balloon twister and entertainer, Jason Vaughn of Higher Hope Balloons, has decided to put his entire business on the line to save his own life. The overweight artist, who last weighed in at 330 pounds, is offering every customer that books his Balloon Story Show on or before Valentine's Day the show absolutely free if he fails to weigh in below 300 pounds by June 1, 2010.

“I've always been a big guy, but I think it is time to take drastic actions. I can't afford a gym or trainer to motivate me, but I can create a great deal of pressure on myself. I'm losing something this year and it'll be weight or money. I'm striving for weight,” said Vaughn.

The decision came to him one night while watching Biggest Loser. He realized that beyond health a great motivator for the contestants was cash prizes. Even though Vaughn had auditioned he was not accepted on the show, but he realized he could create his own prize.

“After years of thinking about it I think it is time to put my money where my gut is,” said Vaughn.

As a balloon artist and story teller much of his income is from shows at libraries, child care facilities, churches and schools so this really is a big risk if he fails to lose the weight.

After word spread about this crazy marketing campaign the balloon twister even had a local gym, Anytime Fitness of Fenton, come along side him to support his efforts.

Vaughn plans to keep his customers and fans updated on his progress on his facbook page, http://facebook.com/HigherHopeBalloons, and noted that while expects most of his customers to wish him success, he wouldn't be surprised if a few sent a few cookie care packages either.
