The good ol' fashioned method of picking up heavier weights until the weights started falling would probably be the least-painful way for most of us to figure it out. It all depends on the friction of the balloon, tensile strength of the balloon, and I'm sure the vacuum plays a large part in it too. Then we'd have to consider the angle of grip as well.
