Dropping water balloons from buildings can be injurious to any unfortunate people below. My solution is to create soap bubbles filled with a mix of smoke and sulphur hexafluoride. Being 5 - 6 times heavier than air they would fall at a reasonable pace (hopefully not bursting) thus causing consternation
to any passerbys who happen to look up and see an, apparently, solid object falling upon them. Hilarity ensues.

//filling the balloon with ferrofluid// |

That raises the possibility of ferrofluid bubbles (ie,
bubbles made of ferrofluid, but filled with air),
which is intriguing. |

The dag nabbed sulfur hexafluoride. Everyone talks SF but the stuff is thin on the ground. Where to get some, quickly, no questions asked? |
|
|
The same effect desired here could be accompished with a helium balloon doped with the appropriate amount of water. Though as regards falling obects causing causing consarnication those inflatable party dolls might work better. |

I can envision some bakers reluctance in that pedestrians might spirit away the party doll used for this experiment and there goes the party. A thin threadlike bunjee cord should trail behind to retreive the doll before she descends to grabby hand range. |
