I followed this story all morning… Almost crying thinking of this poor boy in the balloon. So the balloon comes down and the 6yr old boy is not inside. At least now he has been found! Can you believe it? I am so glad he is safe.

Wow, that must be terrifying for the parents. Hope he’s safe.

Thanks for posting the end of the story! The last I had read, the balloon had come down with nobody in it. I’m glad he’s safe!

You’re welcome. I was posting the topic when I heard on the news that he had been found. I was gonna ask others to speculate on what happened. I figured he was hiding somewhere since the parents said the basket he would have climbed in to was only attached with string and only meant to hold batteries. I dont think the thing (After seeing it next to people for size reference) would have ever lifted a 6yr old boy, but dang, I sure was worried. Silly boys. He was probably scared of getting in trouble for letting his dads balloon fly away. 😆

I saw as well that the boy was found alive! Was so glad for a happy ending for once! Thanks for the update–yeah, he was probably into something he shouldn’t have been into and was hiding out! 😆 I couldn’t begin to imagine the worry of the parents—all’s well that ends well!Wonder if he’s gonna get it once everything calms down!

I think he used up his ’15 minutes of fame’ rather young! 😉 😆
