These people made an "experimental aircraft" out of a big helium balloon... and decided to put their 6 yr old son in it, theres a capsule kind of like a hot air balloon.

They had it tethered to the ground, but something happened, and now this thing has taken off, it's out of control and they are trying to get it down without killing the kid.

Im watching it LIVE on CNN right now... but im sure its on every channel!

This is out in colorado...

I don't believe they "decided" to put their child inside of it, needless to say he was not in it when it crashed so he probably fell out (hopefully survived) or jumped out and is hiding b/c he knows dad will be pissed he ruined his toy.

Re: wow... check out the news! LIVE

now they are saying nobody was in it... how the fuccck do you get confused if your kid is in it or not, something sounds fishy!

Now they're saying that the kid might not have even been in the balloon. Thanks for making my day boring again Matt, I was hoping the kid fell out, and he was nothing more than a bloodstain on the landscape.

" The boy was not inside the helium aircraft when it landed, CNN affiliate KMGH reported.

A sibling saw the boy get into the craft Thursday morning. Officials were concerned that the boy may have fallen out of it, an undersheriff said."

Margie Martinez of the Weld County Sheriff's Office said a sibling saw Falcon Heene climb into the basket before the balloon took off from his parents' Fort Collins, Colorado home.

Since the door on the balloon was unlocked, it's possible the boy had fallen out,

A different take on the boy in the well story.

Why wasn't he in school?

I thought for sure there would be a light show when it buzzed the powerlines.

I hope the boy is ok and he did not fall out of the balloon. I guess we just have to wait for an update.

Just saw it on CNN. Great news. Being a parent myself, I am just glad that nothing happened to the little boy.

Re: wow... check out the news! LIVE

IS this the little boy they are looking for?


Tell them he's with a grumpy old man and a talking dog.

Parents should be fined and pay for the rescue party and any attempts to look for the kid , since it was a hoax. How would the parents not know where their kid is? They shoul have CPS looking at this also stunt to get atttention= fail
