We're chasing that dream-like feeling of floating free in the air and playing around, be it real or fantasy. Any post type that conveys this feeling is welcome. Check the post flairs for examples.

What qualifies for Floating Is Fun is open to interpretation. I encourage everyone to post what they like to see. Give us a gentle push and we'll float pretty far.

We started on Reddit /r/FloatingIsFun in 2021 and moved here in 2023. All 400+ posts from the original from the original subreddit have been reposted here, so you're not missing anything.

a bitcrushed GIF of fisheye action cam footage of kiteboarder Yücel Paralik gliding around above the sea with his sport wing; he's wrestling with his kite to wing to stay aloft as it spins him around chaotically, and it was hard for Hitstun to find a 15-second clip that loops decently well

a GIF from Fifth Gear showing a green lorry crashing head-on into a bollard, violently detaching the cabin and stopping the trailer dead in its tracks, flinging its payload of sand onto the bollard; this has multiple camera angles

Now look what you made me do! I had to go look up that segment from Fifth Gear just so I could watch the wreck and make a proper GIF of it.

sigh I totally deserved that.
