First living creatures to take flight in a man-made craft NEW Joseph-Michel and Jacques-Etienne Montgolfier (France) invented and built a hot-air balloon for a test in front of French royals Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette in 1783, but the effects of flight on a human were unknown, and it was decided to test the venture with a sheep (named Montauciel, or “Reach the Sky”), a duck and a rooster, the first living creatures to take flight in a man-made craft.
