He told the Telegraph: "It was a fairly indescribable feeling, wafting across Africa on a cheap camping chair dangling from a load of balloons. Sort of peaceful and terrifying in equal measure.
"I came here to see if we could organise the world's most ridiculous air race and after that flight, I'm more convinced than ever that we can."
The 38-year-old, who founded The Adventurists organisation in 2004, says: "We hold what we like to think are proper adventures, the sort where you have to use your own cunning; no guides, no rules and plenty of glorious mayhem."
The Adventurists say they are "fighting to make the world less boring" and their adventures have so far included rickshaw driving across the Himalayas and motorbiking across a frozen Siberian lake.
Fellow explorer Matt Dickens explains Morgan created The Adventurists after "a failed attempt to drive to Mongolia in 2003".
"He decided to try again the following year with slightly more planning than just getting drunk in a bar and pointing towards the most ridiculous place he could think of on a map," he said.
"Since then we've been putting on a series of events and have had tens of thousands of people participate in our adventures."
So why the balloon flight? "Whyever not?" he responds. "Surely it's perfectly logical?"
