Six Year Old Boy Drifts Off In Balloon.

A six year old boy in Colorado has drifted off in a small hotair balloon. CNN reports that he may have fallen out, due to the way the balloon is flying.


... I don't know whether to cry or laugh.

1.) Serious discussion why?
2.) Why would you laugh at a six-year-old falling out of a hot air balloon?

What? That's a terrible thing to say?
And I heard they are getting a guy to rapel down off a helicopter onto it.

There's a couple of helicopters on it. I wrote the 'laugh' comment before I heard that the boy might have fallen out. Sorry.

Hey, can a mod move this to GCC? It'd be better there.

That is just really sad. His parents must be worried sick.

I hope he returns safe.

Wow. O__O

Hope he hasn't hurt himself...

Bull****, your post wasn't edited.
Also, why would you laugh at a boy getting carried away in a hot air balloon, which would result in the high possibility of him getting lost or falling out?

God damn, they already made a movie about this kid?

Thank you for catching that. I was also going to say that. His post wasn't edited, therefore he knew.

They're trying to see if the kid is in there. It doesn't look good.

Oh dear, poor kid.
How could this happen at all? :/

Ouch. >˛<

They're almost positive that he fell out. He could have fallen out early, they think.

Seriously?
The poor kid...

In any case, this is not really SD material, so moving.

Oh, I think it landed and they got him out. Well, I'm watching the news, and I think they said that the kid is okay, but really cold,

Thanks, man. CNN's basically said that they he's not in there. Where'd you get that inormation, Nesi?

At least he was alive and rescued - lucky kid, thankfully!
That's quite an event to have gone through!

I'm glad I didn't have such exciting adventures in my childhood. x3

He wasn't in it.
If he was the medics would have been all up in that balloon as soon as it hit the ground.

Oh wait, now they are saying that there was never anybody in it... Weird, now the news people are confused if the kid was ever in it or not..... Whaaaaaaaat? The news is confusing, awck, arguing newspeople, o.O

>.<
Now, the news ruined this thread.
