Here is a good idea to start a small business. Water balls that you can use as an entertainment. You put a man inside such a ball, blow it and place it into some water surface: lake, river, swimming pool. etc

See here for the details:

watersphere.com/Welcome.html

The water ball is for walking on water, floating on water, also as a float tank, and show business

You can buy such balls and the equipment on the internet. One ball costs around $1000

It`s kinda funny and I don`t consider as a serious business.. But I think it might be a good opportunity for selling advertising or promotion of something because it will attract a lot of people.

I might be interested in trying this funny thing and maybe even investing some money into it if I find people who is interested in this as well in Chicagoland area.

What do you think?

There was the "Bolt Across America" ... not sure who mfg the giant people sized hamster balls used to promote the movie (and raise funds for ASPCA) but I`m sure someone was making some money with the promotion. ... The nice thing about them is they are not sealed and have more of a cushion and work on the ground too ... maybe they are "Zorbs" ... I also remember seeing similar stuff in an old Woody Allen movie (?) and James Bond.
 
When it comes to "crazy ideas" for making money, I`m reminded of a quote: "It`s all fun and games until someone looses an eye!"  Have fun!
