When you think about it, quite a few of them would actually have been impossible to create for real. If the wind carries the balloon out over St Michael’s Mount or the Needles, you’re in for a very wet landing.
Furthermore, I have just done a search on the BBC Motion Graphics Archive. Here is a selection of the information I gleamed from it.

Canary Wharf
Eilean Donan Castle
