Oh Dear...

I hope the kid is just hiding and I seriously hope they charge the parents for the rescue operation. Rumor has it the kids name is Falcon?!

I hope those morons get a bill for the rescue of their child...or attempted rescue.

I Love You, Man was the shiznit. I loved it, every second of it.Slapping the bass! Slappa da bass! Slappa da bass mon!

The plywood is thin and won't survive a crash.  If the kid is still in that balloon he is either having the time of his life or has peed his pants.  Twice.

I too loved I Love You, Man.  I laughed so hard I cried when they were in the tux shop.  I hadn't heard anything about though so I didn't have any expectations.  I just thought it was hilarious.

The balloon reminds me of a giant floating Jiffy Pop.

If his name is really Falcon I may not be able to contain myself. This is horrible but every time something new comes out I struggle to withhold a giggle-fit.Tide, it made me chuckle too when I went back and read it. As soon as I posted the "DED" I was like "Oh NOOOOEES! Take it back!" But I didn't want to DD so I...edited.

That is really moving fast...... egad.Covered in tinfoil? Newscaster "I guess you all really don't have a manual to handle something like this, do you?"Oh, if that boy is in there, this isn't gonna end well......

I didn't see the episode of Wife Swap, but it says in their bio that the kids are basically crazy and have no rules.  Plus, the mom shouts 'STORM APPROACHING' into a bull horn. K, not as surprised that their kid is in a homemade balloon over the plains now.

my vote is he's peed his pants twice.This will not end wellI Love You Man is awesome. A woman I work with went to HS with him and they "do lunch" when he's in town. I'm so jealous.

Thanks Alix!   ...the dad calls the mom his "ninja wife"... hiii-ya!

There's no lock on the door, so he could have fallen out at any time. Nice. God people are stupid!

atobias1

It looks enclosed, is that right? If not would they be able to fly close enough to see if he's in there. I mean if they think he's fallen out what are they going to do to try to find him?

Night_Sprite

I really hope he is okay.  His parents suck.

lyndausvi

wife swap??  Oh god...

kikibaby

Hmm... my coworker is crying about it.  Really, coworker?  The kid isn't dead yet.

Yeah Paul Rudd is pretty much awesome.  I am just in disbelief.  I like that the neighbour spotted it from Saturn Road.  Saturn.. thing looks like a space ship.  They're alien lovers... anyone?

OK, the guy on MSNBC said that if its truly a totally encased helium balloon, the little boy could have asphyxiated within a few minutes, breathing in pure helium. I could be ill now.I hope those parents are in handcuffs now.

I remember being informed while in the Grand Canyon that if rescuers had to come save you because you were an idiot you'd have to pay for it.  Then they told us their last rescue mission cost something crazy like $12k.  I'm beginning to understand that there really are people that stupid out there, and they are the reason for rules like this.And for the warning on your hair dryer that says "do not use while sleeping or bathing."

A lady in the lobby of my office said she heard the dad put him in there while he was testing something. Has anyone else heard that?!?!?

I hate live TV sometimes... I forces us to watch a trainwreck.

missy68

Its landing....

jessjo04

Its a sick feeling - knowing a kid may be dying right now and lots of people know about it, but no one can do anything about it.

Night_Sprite

It is on the ground.

lyndausvi

Where is he?  

salt78

I can't believe his name is really Falcon. I'm pissed that CNN seems to be behind on this.

BecW2be

He's not in it! did he fall out? Is he hiding?!? This is horrible.

aMrsin09

This is supposedly his parents website http://www.thepsyiencedetectives.com/

HES NOT IN IT!?

missy68

They opened up the balloon and don't appear to have found any child. Thank god. Of course.... the question is now - where is he? My stomach is in a knot - anyone else's? Sheesh.
