“Betty’s gains in dimension on behalf of Macy’s were astounding. From her usual petite feminine figure, she expanded to a height of seventy-two feet, voluptuous vital statistics of thirty-four by twenty-four by thirty-six feet, and a weight of 425 pounds. Betty underwent this major transformation by ingesting a good deal of noxious gas so she could float slowly from upper Manhattan to Macy’s flagship store at Herald Square while millions of fans watched in person or on TV on Thanksgiving Day. It must be noted that Betty had achieved her enormous gain in height, bulk, and weight without sacrificing one ounce of her beauty.”
