WHO CARES??? GO AWAY.
Harpoon it with a helicopter. That boy must be terrified. I know his parents are.
That darn George Bush! What was he thinking!
That’s not a “balloon”! This is the cover-up of the century! That, my friends, is a bonafide UFO! No balloon can possibly move that fast or shoot down approaching helicopters with energy beams.
looks like a huge jiffy-pop bag, how about shooting some holes in it?
By the way, I really hope this kid gets down safely, but how the HEL& did this kid get up in the air with this?
Obama will fix stuff like this ever happening again. Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm.
Coincidentally, his favorite movie is “Flight of the Navigator”.
I hope the boy can hang in there, he must be terrified. Maybe they can shoot a bb gun into it to slow sink it or something…..
Lower a person from a copter flying high above and have them hook the top of the balloon. Then slice open the balloon and let the air out then a control descent. The kid is going to freeze unless they act soon.
shane2813 why couldn’t you be on the ballon so we could shoot it down
These low IQ ninnies can not conceive that this child may have done this on purpose.
It is something I always DREAMED of when I was young!
Why does breitbart use msnbc for its tv feed? Stop feeding the network hits to support its lies and agenda. Hope the boy lands safely.
I’d say parachute some delta force soldier to get back the control of the balloon, or get the kid out of the balloon and parachute down.
Fall on your knees and pray not only for his fast and safe return, but that and Angel stay beside him and calm his fears.
Parent Of The Year Award!
wow I wonder where daddy was on this one? I have a feeling this will not end well. The helium will run out…….
What’s Andrew Breitbart doing watching NBC News??
Could they get a helicopter above it and blow it to the ground????!
just flying a helicopter a hundred feet or so above it should give enough of a downdraft to get it to the ground.
-jcr
The anchor said hopefully the rain will “cool down” the helium? It’s not a hot air balloon.
Man that balloon is trucking! Didn’t think they moved that fast, must have some strong winds.
Shoot it down when it violates restricted airspace?
Why does it look like it’s going 200MPH? Seems like it might be the transportation of the future!
shane2813, You’re a sick individual. “Who cares,Go away”, I hope you never have a six year old in trouble. I wish it were you up there.
Our prayers are with him and his family. This could turn out very badly. You may want to save your jokes until he is down and safe.
Richard Heene was on wife swap…
“Watch it live.”??????
That’s disgusting. Poor kid. I am horrified and disturbed by this story.
They need to send somebody up there to get him.
Sure this isn’t a hoax? There is probably no one in it, but if there is, I’m praying for him…
It contains CO2…SHOOT IT DOWN!
Take the kid (and any other children in the home) away from these “parents”. The first hint that they weren’t fit to be parents???….. they named the kid Falcon.
Stupid kid. Time to cleanse the gene pool of one more idiot!
The Air Force needs to dispatch a 2 teams of Pararescue Jumpers (PJ’s) and PaveHawk Rescue helicopters +ut of nearby Kirtland AFB in NM. These are the most qualified guys in the world to attempt an in-air rescue. They may also need supporting MC-130 aircraft for refueling.
If it had a nuke on it, I bet they’d figure out a way to get it down.
Doh BART!!!!
Man…I hope this little guy is doing OK. He has to be terrified up there, bless his heart. Its an amazing creation of home made flight technology but its just harrowing to watch knowing that there is a 6 year old in there. I’m glad there are aviation experts involved in bringing this down safely.

just follow him till he lands all baloons will come down, he is in no real danger. its obommas fault
His name is Falcon! how fitting!
well, this just proves Rush Limbaugh is a racist
send Jessie (Shakedown) Jackson over to save the boy
It’ll come down eventually. Its a freakin balloon.
how cold is it up there? 8500 feet?
I too vote for shooting it down. Dumb kid with poor breeding. One less person to pay for universal health insurance for. Darwin wins.
Hi, I am the boy Falcon in the balloon!!.. I am typing from my laptop. This is awesome!! Yeahhh!!
We obviously need to outlaw hot air balloons. This is a prime example of how we citizens are incapable of responsibility. Please outlaw quickly!
Should be a no-brainer for Obama. Just use some of his magic powers.
Why are you running an MSNBC stream? Are they struggling to find out how this balloon is proof that America is evil or something?
Just don’t try to fly below it with a helicopter…
Six year-old are quick and dangerous, trust me, I’m the proud father of one. I hope this ends well.
whats the parents name, oh-bomma mmmmm mmmmm mmmmm
well, we should give B. Hussein 0bama the Heisman Trophy for this daring rescue
maybe even a Medal of Honor
Hey dummies in the media … send a helicopter and somebody to rappel down to the thing and GRAB it …
Parachute down to it, grab on, dump chute, grab kid, jump with kid – pull reserve chute. easy right?
Hmmm I see a lawsuit in this…besides…how do you “childproof a hot air ballon??”
Did they say that the kids name is Falcon?
What the hell is wrong with parents these days? I’d have child protective services taking these kids away asap
it’s coming down. this will be over soon. nothing to see here. again, darwin wins.
My prayers are with them all.
May he come back safely and gently down.
Obama can rescue him with Air Force NONE !
Lets try our Missle defense shield, the new one that Obama thinks can save us from Iran !
put a bullet hole in to create a slow leak to bring it down by loosing gas.
Three sky-divers need to drift down on the balloon from above, secure it to themselves, deflate the balloon, then deploy their shoots.
I’ve watched way too many movies. God bless.
did anyone listen to the questions these reporters asked??!! “is the family worried?”
why on earth would you ask dumb questions that everyone already knows.
Have the russians shoot it down with our missiles,
Hillary just gave them our launch codes.
The boy is more then likely passed out from lack of oxygen… and the freezing weather at that altitude… Sad. I only hope it has a good ending…. But you bet in a couple of years NASA is going to have something out in a year or two… An controlable..
But The 6 year old got a lot farther then the Wright Brothers wouldn’t you say?
Amazing parenting! Another example of the terrible parenting skills that have spread through our country. Who wouldn’t be watching their kids like a hawk with such a contraption around?! Sheesh…
I hope for the best, but if this balloon filled with healium this kid is inside then he is going to suffocate to death.
well, we need to register all balloons on our tax returns from now on
that’ll prevent this kind of tragedy from ever happening again
had the kid been forced to wait 10 days to ride the balloon, again… this would NOT have happened
all white people should be forced to pay reparations because of this injustice
people are so ignorant that racism caused this !
Oh Dear God, please keep this child safe. How horrifying.
Shoot it down.
Barack Hussein Obama….mmmmm…..mmmmmm…..mmmmmm
Why aren’t they playing “Up, Up and Away” by the 5th Dimension??? That song never gets its due credit.
This family was on Wife Swap. They were crazy on there too
shane2813 you need paralysis with an attitude like that. Being an a**hole will get you nothing.
Good God…that thing is hauling.
it’s beginning to look like a bumpy ride.
Ohhhhh I wish that little boy would peak his cute little head out so I could pleasure myself. Uhhhh!
He’s 6. He’s probably having a blast. I’m praying for him. But HAHAHAHA. Seriously. Praying. Hope he makes it back to Earth safely. And HAHAHA.
Is Jackson and Sharpton in there?? Hope so.
“kind of a UFO shape” somebody needs ratings. seriously?
barack hussein obama mmm mmm mmm needs to get his nobel prize up there and kill those aliens
can’t believe what’s happening…
is it possible to have several professional parachuters to grab the balloon and descend down together?
my only hope is for the boy to come down safely…
Won’t he run out of oxygen if the ballon reaches a certain altitude? He might turn into a block of ice he gets up too high!
He’ll be fine. Hopefully just the beginning of a dashing aviation career for him.
If the kid is black,
Obama will spend $500 million on a rescue mission and appoint four czars.
If the kid is white,
Obama will impose a new excise tax on white child balloon flying.
If the kid is an illegal alien,
send the rest of the kids family along to China because that is where they all belong.
First of all, it’s NOT a hot air balloon! If it was, it would be down already because of cooling with no supplement to heat it.
So, it is a helium balloon. He will sound like Mickey Mouse from the helium, provided he has enough oxygen content in the balloon. It is more likely that he will suffer frostbite. It will come down as the helium leaks out, slowly.
Problem is the rate of descent may be injurious!
Encee
Give him a Nobel Peace Prize!!!!
Great “Flight of the Navigator” reference haha, great movie. Looks like it’s losing a good bit of helium, they are going to follow this balloon for hours live. You’d think Obama’s voice would bring it down safe and sound, he’d have to switch it up to a South Denver Chicago accent tho.
Darwinism.
Good luck kid! Wow this is crazy. Powerlines and cold water would be my worries.
Very Bad Parenting. CPS needs to get involved. Doofus Parent(s) need to be put behind bars ASAP.
I’d say the boy was acting stupidly by getting in to the balloon
all a ploy by the racist, white police department
who were chasing him after he was caught trying to break into a house
let’s invite him over for a beer when this is all over
Obama’s new Czar of Hot Air! If he survives. Good luck kid, hope you make it!
Looks likes another candidate for the Darwin Awards.
We have a 6 year old boy and our thoughts and prayers are with this family…
We pray all will end well.
scramble the F-15s and shoot it down. this has gone on long enough. I have work to do.
Why don’t you just pray real hard, on your knees, and the baby jesus will fly over to colorado and rescue this child on the baby jesus magic carpet. amen
I used to hanglide around the Boulder/Ft. Collins area. I pray for the boy and his family. The relatively stable air currents on the lowlands should the craft relatively stable. It looks like he’s going a lot faster than 20 mph. The listing to port is a major concern, but might cushion the landing. As much helium as he’s losing, I’m hoping for a miracle and a safe landing.
That being said, I can’t help mentioning that the thing looks like a giant flying Jiffy-Pop.
It’s not a balloon, it’s an airship! An AIRSHIP, d’you hear?! Balloons is for
kiddie-winkies! If you want to play with balloons, get outside!
lol Michael, but aren’t you up in heaven, fly down and help little Timmy and I’m sure you could have your way with him first before giving him back to the parents
Why not do something like a net between two helicopters to catch him. That way, the balloon itself is no where near the propellers, and I know the military pilots could do it. Fly in the opposite direction that he is flying until you catch him, then land on the ground.
I hope when this kid is helped with my TAX PAYING money using the autorities that the parents chip in paying back that money to the state. I dont know if this thing was bought for the kid but if it was then these 2 idiots that has raised him for the past 6 years should go to JAIL!
On the other hand I hope this kid crashes real soon because it should serve his parents right and all those idiots who give computers, bikes, tv’s to children these days without actually being a real parent!
Send out balloon chase crews
This is a teachable moment. Obama will bring the kid to the WH for a beer.
Ohbomm, make the kid a “green” aircraft czar and spend a trillion dollars of my money they give yourself some award about it
you guys crack me up….baby jesus, obama heisman….lmao
I’ll tell you, the kids these days….eh, eh, eh
I thought this was a “you might be a redneck” joke for a second
Before you guys get all down on the parents… you mean to tell me you folks with kids (and if your NOT A PARENT you have no expereince to talk) never EVER had your child do something stupid?? You mean to tell me you kept an eye on your child 24/7 and NEVER let them out of your sight?
The only stupidity I see is that if this baloon was never ment to fly then why the heck would you have a small basket on it?
A BB gun would help.
Catch it with a net strung between two helicopters.
So of the comments here are appalling. Do some people find it difficult to relate to the plight of thepeople??
You have got a 6-year-old in a hot air balloon at 10,000 feet. Its cold and the tyke oa all alone except for whatever angels are with him.
Maybe some people do not realize it, but when that balloon’s envelope cools, it is going to descent. Unfortunately, at some point it is going to start descending very quickly.
Unless they can regain control somehow, the outcome does not look good. The only thing I see going for him is that he is small and therefore light. With a great deal of luck he might yet survive this.
Its not the parents fault, at least they know where he is
I can see the flurry of regulatory legislation at the federal level for balloon safety, remote control capability and government inspection.
Then the other flurry of state legislation outlawing people from building experimental aircraft or balloons on their own property.
And don’t forget the laws that will come making it a felony for parents to allow their kids to fly alone.
And all of the nonsense rider legislation that will come with all of this.
Get a guy at the bottom of a ladder (hooked on) hanging from a helicopter with some sort of grappling mechanism and then descend within reaching distance and snag the thing (without popping it).
Then lower it down in a controlled manner.
darwinism at its finest..let natural selection run its course here
After reviewing previous comments, I can only imagine that some of the jackasses making comments about religion might think differently if they were in a similar situation.
Evertime an article like this comes along, someone will eventually allude that there are terrible parents who’d let a child get in a given situation, WITHOUT KNOWING THE FULL DETAILS.
Sheesh,
SubjectoftheUSA, get a life.
“…good parental supervision”?…”Who cares?”…”Harpoon it…”?
The outpouring of concern for the child and the worried parents here is amazing. I pray that the child is unharmed, and that the parents are not crucified over this. We don’t know exactly how this happened, and vilifying the parents isn’t helpful. And the first three comments here are ridiculous.
Mav take the shot
man, the comments I’m seeing here are totally disrespectful of the dangers and possible loss of life. “some of” you folks should be ashamed of yourselves. I hope the lad is successfully rescued.
What is wrong with most you? This doesn’t seem to be a situation to make jokes about, to judge about the fitness of the parents without any proof, and make political punchlines. Civility is indeed dead.
Get the kid down safe then start looking for responsibility!
PRAY!
They could take a military cargo net and hang it from a helicopter with the ability to pull up the lower, hanging end in order to capture the balloon sort of like a butterfly net. Using the helicopter they would be able to safely decelerate the balloon and lower it at a controlled speed.
So this is the “ufos” that have been scaring people the last few decades!
Many prayers for the kid…
How was the kid able to get inside? Does it have a locking door? Can the door open on its own or is there a chance the kid might try opening it themselves or even lean against it? Scary stuff.
Those of you who are making light of this in any way are sick, and those of you already blaming the whole thing on the parents are jerks.
Astronaut Farmer FAIL
Hope it doesn’t violate North Korean air space.
Kruise,
Would those be European helicopters or African helicopters?
Hmmmm… bad Monty Python reference.
The parents need their butts kicked! I don’t let my dogs out without me watching them closely.
How the hell did a 6 year old boy get up there? The news people don’t even tell us.
They won’t show the landing live???? What the hell? Why do you think we are watching! Get out the spatulas and windex to clean up the mess.
If he has a nice soft landing and gets out of this thing it’ll be the funniest damned thing ever
Hmmm…how did they kill “Frosty” on “Frosty the snowman”? or better yet, If you could find “THE A-TEAM” they could bring it down and guaranteed NObody would get hurt.
This is awful—he must be terrified—I hope to God they get hime down.
Hey, I give the kid credit. A guy just can’t sit around and watch TV all day. Other kids would be inside on the XBOX, while this young space ranger is out living the dream. He’ll have a good story to tell to his 1st grade class tomorrow. :)
Goose said: “Mav take the shot.”
Bravo, Sir. Bravo
Mou…er, I mean hands off MJ. The boy is mine!!!!YiPEE!!!!
Bushes fault; obviously.
All these violent gun toting repubs…don’t you know there is no use for guns in Amerika anymore?
They kill people! I think they should call Obama ’cause he can fix anything!
I do think that the news has been wild about six-year olds…first the cub scout getting
kicked out of school for his knife and now this little guy…well, prayers for him and his
family…he’s probably going to be fine and laughing all the way off thinking he had a great
ride!
hey morons..shoot it down?? then what? watch it crash to the ground at 200 mph…and those of you supporting the parents..Are you retarded?? why the HELL would you build this thing, then let your 6 year old get inside and watch him take off?????????????
Let natural selection take its course..no one in this family should be reproducing ever again
Hang on Kid! We are praying for your safe return!
Please, enough “cover” story. There IS no kid…its clearly a UFO…just LOOK at it
that was anticlimatic. Damn. I wanted to see a Hindenberg scene.
Hopefully it will not hit or land on any live electrical wires as it descends. The parents have to be as frightened as the kid.
Euthanize the parents.
I don’t think the expense of saving this boy justifies the cost to rescue him and keep him alive for another short 70 years. I think we need some sort of governamental rescue agency setup to tax us in order to ration rescue attempts so we can save the economy.
I bet that balloon is currently filled with lots of pee and poo.
I’m thinking about how my 5 yo grandson would be reacting in a stressful situation and then looking at some of the comments posted here and can only come to the conclusion, “What twits we are nowadays.”
This is Obama’s inflation at work causing the balloon, with the poor kid inside, to run out of control – and global warming isn’t helping either.
Pixar better be preparing their defense case.
Lets all pray it doesnt land at neverland ranch
Who ever said I beleive the children are the future was really wrong on that one.
WooHoo! Go Generation X babeeeee!
I hope its not another “cub scout” gone wild! I do hope he’s ok, are they sure he’s on it?
He’s dead, I just know it.
the kid isn’t in it. mark my words.
Where is the boy?
Yep. I was right. no kid. Hoax. Get back to work people.
nobel committe has nominated boy for Nobel prize for aureonautics.
saying the boys flying abilities are even greater than obama’s peace abilities.
Kid is probably hiding under a bed somewhere . . .
ahahahahahahahaha he’s not even inside it, all this for nothing
He dropped out at 2000 ft
Haven’t you people seen X-files? It’s an abduction. The same thing happened to Scully and Mulder’s sister. So they really are here.
Where is he????????????????????
No boy was inside…praise the LORD
Another fake story.
Pray to Obama! Obama save him!
All you tools who were praying that the kid was OK…. Do you feel any more stupid than usual, or just as stupid as always?? just wondering.
Calling on All Angels Seriously!
Again…..Where were the parents???? **Don’t do that little johnny or you will have a time out!!!!** I would bet the kid is an un-disciplined little brat. So NOW, what is it going to cost to bring him down???
MAN JUST LOOK HOW BAD OUR HEALTH CARE SYSTEM IS, FREAKING EMERGENCY SERVICE VEHICLES AND EMT’S FOLLOWING THIS KID FOR MILES AND MILE OVER COUNTIES AND CITIES. AND THEY DON’T EVEN KNOW IF HE HAS INSURANCE OR NOT. Man do we suck.
Looks like we’ve all been hoaxed.
If he’s not in the balloon where is he? Did he fall out?
Get Charlie Sheen to jump out of a C-130 to rescue him.
the kid has become an instant millionaire.
I hope the boy accidentally released the balloon, then he ran to a neighbor’s house to hide from his father.
Where were his parents? How was he able to launch the balloon by himself? The whole situation screams gross incompetence by both the parents AND the operator(s) of the balloon. If the kid gets out of this alive, he will be a very lucky boy, indeed. If he does, however, he should be placed in foster care until the parents can demonstrate that they will be more responsible in the future in supervising the boy’s actions. The balloon operator deserves all of the legal thunderbolts that are obviously going to be thrown at him/her, when the situation ends, one way or another.
here’s hoping both parents are thrown in jail
MSNBC should be MSNB.S.
No six year. Lots of popcorn.
It’s me Falcon…lovin’ my iPhone from up here in the balloon. Tell my dad it works and that I’ll see him in hell.
Well he’s not in there so let’s hope he didn’t fall out somewhere during the flight….
Wanna bet he let it go and ran away to hide because he was scared of being punished?
And the brother mistakenly thought he was in it?
I’m happy he wasn’t and hope he just hid and did not fall out during the flight.
So you name your kid “FALCON”? The fastest animal in the animal kingdom due to its ability for free-fall flight? Shoulda named him Joe.
30 POUNDS OF LIFT WOULD REQUIRE A BALLOON 25 FEET IN DIAMETER AND 10 FEET THICK. UNLESS THE KID IS VERY SMALL, THE PHOTOS OF THE BALLOON SHOW INSUFFICIENT SIZE TO PRODUCE ADEQUATE LIFT.
No KID !!!Another half way measure of obomma, mmmm mmmm mmmm
Stop saying “y’know”!
Wow man, I took a ride like that once.
This is an internet prank from a website called 4chan there never was a boy inside
Get an attorney. Sue them for destroying this work of “Art” for no reason.
I bet he was never in there in the first place. He let it loose and then realized his pop was gonna kick his ass, and he’s hiding. I hope so anyway. Hope he didn’t fall out.
Heyoh Falcon here again. I’ma let you finish, but this is the best runaway balloon flight EVER!
Joe Biden could fly better. I want congress hearings about this. I spent 20 minutes of my life I can never get back
it’s so pathetic how much people care about this. i hope you all go float away.
ANY LARGE MASS IN THE BASKET WOULD PULL DOWNWARD… THE HELIUM WOULD PULL UP. THAT THING LOOKED LIKE IT WAS FLOATING ALONG WITH NO WEIGHT INSIDE.
And so now someone read this and is on Hannity proffering my theory…. hey I’m a teacher I know how kids are.
Also there are many children’s books that have stories about kids flying off in balloons like this.
We are all praying for you little guy
Not actually a hot-air ballon but a helium-balloon. I pray that the young lad is hiding safe somewhere alive and well.
It will fun to see all the copy cats on this one.
Obama too busy pushing a new $500 per idiot cash check.
What is next, Obama rebates for nose pickers?
Praise Obama! mmmm mmmm mmmm Barack Hussein Obama mmmm mmmm mmmm Barack Hussein Obama
The latest news is that the balloon landed but no information of the fate of the kid has been released. He was up there for two hours. This doesn’t look like a good ending, folks. Maybe you should knock off the jokes for a while.
poor boy!
Mr Wilson reports his ballooon is missing. dennis???!!!
jcool, et al. Keep praying tards. No kid. Never was. You religious freaks are so easy to punk into prayer mode.
Aw great. Cheney up to his old tricks AGAIN
These people were on ‘Wife Swap’ last year!!!
So here is the question. Was there an attachment to the ballon or not?
Hey can someone help me out? I lost a balloon and need to get it back before Mom & Dad get home!
Dick Chenny could hit it
No 6 year old? No Falcon? This is looking suspicious…
That kid is prolly in school right now singing the Obambi song hmmmm hmmm.. lord obama.
I swear if this kid never got in this thing, I will buy a plane ticket to CO and kick his dad’s ass.. the kid too..
it’s an ufo and stfu
There are some really sick remarks being made here. i am so disappointed in a great percentage of the “so-called human race” that has checked in here.
You are totally depraved and digusting.
Its nice to see that this is breaking news when we have soldiers dying overseas. And to top it off, where’s the kid? or the parents?
THE KID WAS FOUND !!
In his teachers bed
What is this going to cost the parents? Where is this little boy?
Just for the record, I called this hoax FIRST!! See comment above!
Seriously, those folks that are blaming the parents for this have obviously never met a 6-year-old boy up close. They think they can do anything grownups can do, and no amount of telling them otherwise will get into their heads until they try and find out the hard way that they can’t. They’re not old enough yet for rationality and reason to overpower their drive to explore and learn. This boy has learned that he is big enough to get a balloon going but not big enough to get it down; I hope he lives long enough to remember that!
Barack Hussein Obama mmmm mmmm mmmm, put a falcon in a balloon, took the rich mans silver spoon..Barack Hussein Obama mmmm mmmm mmmm
Cynthia. You’ve been punked. Relax.
Anyone ever notice that the weakminded are the easiest to trick?
Where’s the kid??
“Wanna bet he let it go and ran away to hide because he was scared of being punished?”
That’s what I’ve been thinking from the beginning.
harry reid says he was about to appropriate 50 billion dollars to save the kid.
casue, ya know, 50 billion isnt really that much.
the giant silver bed pan is empty !
the child was probably playing with his dad’s craft, let it loose, got scarred and ran away…
I have the kid dammit !
He’s watching porn with me so he can learn how to be properly gay.
That’s what mmmmmm 0bama hired me for
was to teach sex to kiddies
The kid is in the house watching SpongeBob. Always has been.
Keep praying twits.
That could barely lift itself. There was never a kid in that!
The kid fell out you idiots!
umm…is there a reason this boy wasn’t at school???
Obama called, He say we have a good case since the authorities acted “stupidly” in destroying this innocent aircraft.
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!!
[splat]
I had wax wings, it didn’t work out well for me and I blame my Father.
Michael Jackson you are one sick sob and wish I could see you right now and beat you senseless to the point where MJ wouldve been proud of his face. I hope karma catches you tonight and this world doesnt have to see you again. POS
At this point the police need to look at other scenarios. Abduction by some freak. Family members. I hope the kid is safe.
Cynthia, baby, It is called the food chain
This is a hoax by a family that are known attention whores. They were on a reality TV show. This was all staged. All of you clowns who were praying were praying for a stunt by an attention whore. Get over it.
I jumped out a long time ago, I am a …FALCON
I’m sure there will be Congressional investigation and George Bush, Dick Cheney and Karl Rove will all be called to testify. After all, they are to blame for this.
Well as we all know now the young boy was not in there. If this in fact is not some sort of hoax we must only prey that the boy is ok weather he jumped out or is hiding somewhere I sure do hope he is fine.
Video of Falcon and family can be viewed here:
New episode for Myth Busters
A child may have died, probably has, and people on here are making jokes about it?
You sick losers who are joking about this are worse than animals. You have no
honor, no virtue, no decency, you’re pathetic turds typing your smart ass comments in your
parents basements. I’d tell you all to go to hell, but since that’s where
you’re going anyway..I won’t bother. You’re also the buttholes who will want me to
pay your healthcare when you’re older. Worthless, perverted, generation of narcissistic
dog crap..you’re life is beyond meaningless. No go back to looking at porn, and make sure your mom iron’s you burger king outfit.
Warren. Please do not “prey” on this child. Being a religious freak is bad enough. Being a stupid religious freak is even worse. Go away.
hej szukam polaków mieszkających w USA pisać na matik1234@gazeta.pl
JohnQpublic: NOONE gives a rats arse to hear your smart *** comments and wish I could see you and this time there would be a need for a cleanup. youre a POS and hope you pass this evening in a horrible way.
Max. You are late to the party. Go climb back under a rock. The only thing that is dead is your common sense.
They think the basket dropped off the first minute or so of the flight. Odds are the kid didn’t make it but maybe he landed on something soft. sucks man.
Check this out…the dad was on the show WIFESWAP! Guess what he swaped with a couple that owns a child proofing business.
Strange things are a foot, and I hope the boy is alright and that this is not a publicity hoax.
If we would have had a few more weeks to discuss this we could have figuered out a strategy on how to land this craft safely WITH the boy inside.
Tom Cruise flew up there and saved him. Ask Tom Cruise.
Scub. You’re a real internet tough guy. Don’t like people joking about a hoax??? Get over it. There are so many tards in here, it seems to be a convention. Scub, you could be chairman.
John Q, onanism is your friend, embrace it. Until then let the grownups have their say.
His oldest brother received wax wings, that didn’t have a happy ending. Hey, the old man is upping his game,
I wonder what the middle brother will receive?
I got boys. And, a six year old would climb inside but he’d be dead or at least passed out from the helium or whatever gas was used to float this thing. Therefore, he’d still be in the balloon. And, if he was still awake after 30 seconds of breathing the stuff and jumped, his family would have seen him fall. Anyone could have easily watched this balloon sail away for a few minutes. If he didn’t jump by a few minutes, he’d fallen asleep inside or worse. So, the story doesn’t make sense. So, here’s a better ending to this potentially horrific story: Six-year-old (Falcon?)somehow releases balloon and does what every six-year-old does: “Holy crap!” and runs to a friends house to hide. He’s hiding under his little buddy’s bed, as I write this. His little buddy’s mom has not turned on the television to see what Falcon has gotten himself into and is fixing lunch for him. We can hope.
This is exactly how Roswell got started. I hope they find that kid – I think some bozo abducted him and set that thing off as a diversion, he fell out early and is lying somehere, or he’s running for the hills thinking his dad is pissed at him!
Max, are you up to speed yet? You can be co-chairman with Scub of the Tard Convention in here today.
Looks like a real flying saucer.
The same one seen making crap cirles.
I bet Stanton Friedman will be on Coast-to-Coast AM claiming yet another government cover-up.
dude, the kid’s dead. D E D DEAD.
nothin to see here folks,, let’s move along..
I hope he did not fall out at some point as as someone said, merely hiding for fear of punishment for letting it go. Sad to say, we may not find this little boy alive. For you people making jokes, please have some sympathy and decency. The internet may be anonymous, but your conscience is not.
This just in: Falcon is Chris Angel’s son! OMG!
Hey, you know how it happened. He was filling the chef’s hat up with the helium, it started to get floaty, the winds kicked up, he looked around for something to weight it down with while he finished filling it up, he had a couple concrete blocks over by the garage but he couldn’t let go of the balloon to go get them, what to do?, what to do? hey, there’s the kid…in a very high, squeaky helium-tightened voice says “Falcon, come over here and sit in the balloon…daddy’s gonna grab those blocks over there…I’ll be right back. Stay right here, okay?”, goes to get the blocks, turns around, kid and balloon, up, up and away. Typical shadetree mechanic story.
Regardless, there’s some guilt for you, boy.
Michael,
Common sense. Get some. Until then, please keep your illogical thoughts to yourself.
the plot thickens
Obama should don his Superman suit and rescue this poor, helpless boy!
I bet the whole thing was a stunt to get the ballon noticed.
Ted. Thanks. You are a genius at reporting the obvious.
tinman reports boys is fine. wants to go home. but doesnt know how to get back.
looking for oabam of oz now for help.
Okay, that thing couldn’t lift the weight of the boy… it was barely inflated enough to carry its own weight. Assume he’s 50 lbs. He would need almost 1000 cubic feet of helium to lift just the boy. That balloon would have also not appeared flat if that much weight had been in the compartment. Ever seen a weather baloon? the gases fill to the top and the balloon appears long.. not flat… :) if he was on it it may have lifted him and he fell out but it would have been at low altitude and then the balloon without ballast would shoot up to altitude… :)

Here’s a video the parents made of their 3 kids.(2 now, perhaps)
What self-absorbed azzwipes.
Just did a quick estimate on the mass that a balloon that size could lift and it doesn’t seem like it would even be able to lift the 45 lb kid.
very much a guess: volume of balloon: 25 cubic meters – max mass capacity (if balloon weighs nothing) – 25kg or so. The kid weighs about 20 kg so I guess it was possible if the balloon weighed next to nothing…
my guess: hoax
other possibility: kid fell out near home and is dead.
I’m really hoping for the former…
The family with the 6yo boy with the balloon was on two episodes of WifeSwap Here are two links to pictures. The first has a picture of the craft behind them!

where do we get live coverage of this event? I’m now enthralled.
its just a distraction to get oh-bomma care passed
As others pointed out based on the size of this balloon I seriously doubt the boy was ever inside during flight.
Most likely hiding b/c he is scared and once he saw all the cops and firefighters in his neigborhood(I am assuming they are all over the place there) he really hunkered down.
omg what a bunch of insensitive jerks some of you are. this isn’t funny. this isn’t a stupid political joke for the morons of the left to say things about bush. what the hell is wrong with you people? this is a 6-year old kid who could have fallen out and died. has the left desensitized you that much?
according to my calcuations, the results are inconclusive
I just did a quick estimate too…
what was i talking about?
WHY do the news shows sit there and SPECULATE all about POSSIBILITIES instead of just getting the FACTS from the AUTHORITIES on the ground?
According to the father, there was ANOTHER COMPARTMENT attached that was MISSING in the TV videos while the balloon was floating in the sky.
Also, the older brother and some other people said they SAW something fall out of the sky.
So CLEARLY *something* fell off the craft. WHAT is so hard about reporting that, instead of all the other speculative and misleading nonsense?
Just wondering…
P.S. Hoping & praying the kid will survive and the parents will be issued some MAJOR CITATION or PENALTY for their foolishness! Just more proof that we need a LICENSE TO PARENT, to avoid idiots propagating more idiots. Where’s HOLDREN & SUNSTEIN on THAT ISSUE?!?!?!!?!?
I bet they should be seriously questioning the boy who witnessed the 6 yr old get in it….i bet he is actually the one who let the ballon go and the 6 yr old is elsewhere or the boy who witnessed may have harmed the 6 yr old and tried to cover it up whith this stunt.
the clild may have survived but that guy who beat the balloon with the shovel may have killed him
Trick or Treat!!!
Up Up and away in my beautiful balloon, Way up in the air in my beautiful balloon……..
1 they chase storms and look for extraterrestrial life
2 they go on missions to prove Richard’s theories about magnetic fields and gravity
3 they have a flying saucer balloon
4 we just bombed the moon
come on people do the math
ok….i added it up and still jibberish!
would be 10, right?
what do i win?
a trip a balloon?
whats the second prize?
Changie: Jon and Kate make seven.
The family is filled with batshiatcrazy attention whores. Kid was never in the balloon and it was a publicity stunt. Nothing to see here.
OR
The family is filled with batshiatcrazy attention whores. Kid fell from balloon – so one fewer batshiatcrazy attention whore. Nothing to see here.
My guess is the former, but don’t really care one way or the other.
Meh. Who cares. What’s for dinner tonight?
Do my laundry, you celestial!!!
OK. The kid’s name is FALCON. (WHO names their kid FALCON?) He & his whole family are OBSESSED with FLYING and FLYING OBJECTS and Extraterrestrials, etc. A 6-year-old does not realize important facts like (1) he’s not really a BIRD; (2) he really cannot FLY; (3) gravity can HURT if you are UP HIGH and FALL.
Add it all up, and you get a naive but adventurous kid climbing into a flying object, and either FALLING OUT or deliberately JUMPING OUT to “FLY”… (He might even have thought he was going to visit “ET”!) They should probably be looking for him close to home…
And yes, why hasn’t the News reported more about the structure and what part (compartment) fell off, what was it made out of, what color was it, etc.?
THEY FOUND THE LITTLE BRAT IN THE ATTIC! WHAT A BUNCH OF IDIOTS!
HOPE THE AUTHORITIES *FORCE* THOSE PARENTS & THE KIDS TO FOOT THE BILL FOR ALL THE *EXPENSES* INVOLVED IN THIS “WILD-FALCON CHASE”!!
The kid was just found hiding in a box in his attic. What a cut up, hahahahahaha.
His mother, Typhoid Mary, will probably give him a 20 minute time out. (Then they’ll go on Oprah next week.
AZZWIPES.

Hey, BB: WHERE did our post go that broke this news?
Ah, don’t be harsh. Thank God the little turd is o.k. Hiding in a box in the attic. Classic. All is well…for once. Prayers got answered.
Good work XQQME! A 12 foot diameter helium balloon at Colorado’s ~5400 feet will lift roughly 40 pounds. The box and other plywood parts probably came in at 10 pounds… They never had the lift. It just was not big enough. It could probably carry only it’s own weight well judging by the apparent size. They would have needed 2 to 3 times the volume.
However, the genius parents should have known the lift and that it was not possible to carry the boy off. That brings the possibility of a hoax up… Of course, there is only one way to test it to be sure ;)
Of course it is good it all turned out well. Pretty good entertainment really! And if it was all a hoax, it was a good one! :D
Just make mommie and daddy pay for all the expense involved and everyone will live happy ever after.
Wonder if there was this much commotion over Orville and Wilbur Wright?
For all who successfully “did the math” – please report for civic duty.
CONGRESS NEEDS YOU – NOW!
P.S. JohnQPublic – you’re a mess. We’re definitely on different sides of the spectrum. Still, there were times you had me in stitches. Too bad we can’t put your creativity to good use to HELP SAVE AMERICA! Well… if you change your mind, WE’LL BE HERE.
Balloon boy story was followed by so many people today. So many people also found original ways to promote something. A funny example that made me laugh is: http://www.localeconomy.ca/sponsor_the_balloon_6_years_old_boy.php
Some others built online games, designed t-shirts, wrote songs… Thank God balloon boy is alive.

“Just make mommie and daddy pay for all the expense involved and everyone will live happy ever after.”
Colorado does a LOT of search and rescue especially in Larimar county*… It is one of their major budget and taxation increase whining points.
They tried to charge for things like this “once”, and then the tax payers wanted to reduce their budgets 20% since it would be paid for by the rescued people instead…. =:O !!!
Plan instantly DROPPED!!!!!!!!! Don’t charge $20,000 for a rescue and get your budgets cut by $24,000,000.00…
Anyone with a fish and game license is charged automatically for going to save their buts anyway. Others can even buy a card to cover them:
http://www.larimercountysar.org/COSARFund.htm
But unless you do something really fraudulent and criminal, it is all written off as ‘training’… I think the modern politics in the area understands that A*hats get removed from office there real d* fast!!
*BTW – It is super nice not to have that A*hat Republican moron sheriff Jim Black there anymore that used to do searches like this on ‘horse back’… I ’still’ remember that failed fool… I think the new guy there is a Republican too though. Must have Democrat genes or something…
Apparently also, the empty balloon decided to crash before it got near failed Republican Marilyn Musgrave’s area!! That is still a hot air waste site…
Good!!! I managed to bring politics into this after all :D
[...] Live coverage via 9NEWS or BreitbartTV. [...]
The balloon boy story would not have gotten so much publicity if a few of those news reporters had bothered to watch that myth-busters episode about how many helium balloons it takes to lift one small child (thousands)
