I'm a helicopter pilot and I'm scared ^^^^less of Hot Air Ballons, I'd sooner go skydiving. He's in serious serious trouble, I hope it ends ok.

I apologise I have posted this in the wrong thread.

It's just makes feel sick that a 6 year old child is stuck in this.

Holy ^^^^...

It would be nice to know how a 6 year old kid ended up all alone in an out of control hot air balloon.

doesn't look good...

No ^^^^... I mean... what can they do about it...?...

It's down...

Where's the kid?... wth?...

Kid's not in there... did it have a basket or something?...

Kids not in there, they would have got him out right away.

They are saying the boy is ok.

No they aren't hes just not in the balloon, they don't know where he is.

What a stupid father to even consider making this sort of thing for his kid "Falcon" to float away in. And what a stupid father for naming his kid "Falcon."

Father isa storm chaser. I wonder if this ballon was designed to chase storms.

I was just watching the news and they said "The boy is OK...I repeat, the boy is OK." Just because he's not on camera doesn't mean he's dead or lost or abducted by aliens.

The balloon was not made to carry people, it has no basket. It's a weather balloon.

The kid could have just as easily hopped in a car and driven off.
