To provide a balloon for scattering ashes and a method for scattering ashes with few possibilities of failing and falling in scattering ashes in the air.

Ashes 7 are put in a first balloon 1, and a second balloon 3 is positioned inside the first balloon 1. By injecting an injection gas 5 into the second balloon 3, the first and second balloons 1 and 3 are layered and inflated together. A mouth 9 of the inflated first and second balloons 1 and 3 is closed, and ruptured at a high altitude, whereby the ashes are scattered in the air. At the time, if only the first balloon 1 on the outer side is ruptured without rapture of the second balloon 3 on the inner side, the ashes 7 are immediately scattered in the air. On the other hand, if only the second balloon 3 on the inner side is ruptured without rapture of the first balloon 1 on the outer side, the ashes 7 remain inside the first balloon 1 on the outer side not to fall with the buoyancy of the first balloon 1. Then, the first balloon 1 rises to a higher altitude, and eventually raptures, and as a result, the ashes are safely scattered in the air.
