This sounds like something I'd do as a kid if I had access to a huge balloon - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

6-year-old Colorado boy floats away in balloon

Hopefully he is OK and will have a great story to tell for years to come.

blkZ06 · 10-15-2009, 03:36 PM

this isnt going to end well

SheaButter · 10-15-2009, 03:44 PM

Turns out that there was no kid in the balloon or at least thats what I am hearing on the tv.

ASIAN JUL · 10-15-2009, 03:46 PM

I'm hearing it landed and there's no one in it.. they think now the kid might have fallen out?

Elliott18t · 10-15-2009, 03:48 PM

only cuz the door was unlocked

Chris B. · 10-15-2009, 03:50 PM

Maybe he jumped out shortly after it took off and he is hiding somewhere back at home trying to avoid getting in trouble.

ASIAN JUL · 10-15-2009, 03:52 PM

Getting in trouble? Even if he wasn't in it at all, if a 6 year old kid managed to untie the knot, there's something seriously wrong with the parents leaving **** like that around unsecured.

blkZ06 · 10-15-2009, 03:52 PM

hopefully that is the case and not that the thin plywood basket broke and he took a header from 5000ft

BlackBulletTSi · 10-15-2009, 03:52 PM

They need to map a course between beginning and end of that path and start looking at weather patterns and ish and find that poor kid.

Elliott18t · 10-15-2009, 03:54 PM

where would he fall out? i dont even see how to get in? lol

No there shouldn't... but I agree there probably will be one tomorrow. You can't outlaw stupidity. Obviously something went terribly wrong, but when was the last time you heard a story like this?

Nothing makes people safer then quick reactionary feel good legislation.
