I bet it flipped over on him, he landed on a seam and it split. I noticed one side of the balloon looked to be flat.

The news said the balloon had another part to it and maybe that is where tha boy was.
Others say it was just some sort of stunt from the family to get attention. That family had been on a show called wife swap so people assume it was just to get back on tv.
Either way I hope the boy is fine and not injured.
When i first saw it on tv I got so nervous that there would be a 6 year old boy in the balloon.
I have 3 kids and I don't know wht i would have done if something like that happened to any of them

It was running out of helium, when it landed it did look like tha part of the balloon was torn but they didn't say nothing about it on tv

I was keeping up with this at work today too. I really am curious if this was just a way to get some more publicity.

The 6 year old boy was found hiding in the addict of his home. The parents were elated to find their son. A family spokesman said the boy is resting comfortably, but will not be able to sit down for a week.

The boy ratted his Dad out. Apparently in an interview the boy said he didn't come out of hiding because his Dad told him to do it for the "show"..

All the resources that were used on a freakin hoax for attention, what a waste.

The things people will do for attention. Reminds me of Octomom...

Man i think they should get a fatty fine for that shit... Even jail time. A buddy of mine (with out kids) was saying that that is child negelect (when the balloon was still in the air) and i defended them but dang now they should get punished for that. The police time, paramedics, Military, and everything else that was wasted.

Over 2 million was spent on the search & rescue attempt. The media should foot that bill because they all collectively got plenty of airtime due to this stunt. The dad and kid should get a slap on the wrist too!
