What if some beastly vulture or pterodactyl comes through and pops that sucker?

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

holy crap it's on cnn

[TheAnchorman]

Because they have nothing better to cover...

[beasly15]

the damn kid is way the f*ck up there!

[beasly15]

that would suck, it would probably have to be a 15 ft. monster quest vulture

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

Because they have nothing better to cover...

this is a ratings booster...this is live action.

[ihatetimthomas]

The method of rescue is to just let the balloon deflate? They better come up w/ a better plan very soon.

they said it could stay up there for a long time...kid will freeze to death tonight or die from lack of energy.

[DonDadda59]

So this kid's parents are responsible for all the UFO sightings out there, building working fu*king flying saucers :roll:

[rufuspaul]

Damn thing is at 8,000 ft. It must be cold as f*ck up there.

[InspiredLebowski]

Damn, that thing's getting flat as hell and tipsy. Kid's gonna fall out.

[ihatetimthomas]

they said it could stay up there for a long time...kid will freeze to death tonight or die from lack of energy.

Yea hypothermia is the biggest worry. But how would they get this out of the sky without causing it to spiral down?

[beasly15]

the nuggets stole it

[ihatetimthomas]

Damn, that thing's getting flat as hell and tipsy. Kid's gonna fall out.

They said it has a passenger compartment at the bottom, but yea it looks very lopsided

[rezznor]

i hope that helium is separated from the chamber that kid is in, otherwise he may already be dead from lack of oxygen.

[InspiredLebowski]

I finally figured out what this whole thing reminds me of.

He's been up there 2 hours, 6 year old kid must be tripping balls

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

damn atdhe ain't showing this

gotta be a live feed online some where

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

wow they think the kid might have fallen out. holy fck :mad:

[InspiredLebowski]

CNN just said he might've fallen out

[beasly15]

oh sh*t!!! they think he probably already fell off.

[SCREWstonRockets]

damn atdhe ain't showing this

yeah, i'm looking for the stream as well. lol is that wrong?

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

oh sh*t!!! they think he probably already fell off.

yeah they said the door is partially open. this is disgusting. these parents are fcking idiots. what is the sense of having one of these things anyways? grrr i guess i am just angry at the parents, but the thing does look pretty cool. i hate airplanes so i doubt id have any use for this flying thing.

[bisk]

yeah, i'm looking for the stream as well. lol is that wrong?

of course not.

[InspiredLebowski]

what a dumb b*tch.

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

wow a blackhawk might lower somebody down into the balloon...doesnt seem possible cause the balloon is going pretty damn fast. hope they show all of this on live tv. god can u imagine what is going thru the parents minds?

[Nets fan 93]

it's deflating

[ihatetimthomas]

They better start looking around the area he lifted off in case he fell out

[InspiredLebowski]

If some dude repels into this thing and brings down a 6 year old boy he's gonna get the Chelsey Sullenberger treatment times infinity.

[Richie2k6]

Damn this is serious.

[YAWN]

youd think we would have a way to rescue this kid but i guess not..

[Nets fan 93]

youd think we would have a way to rescue this kid but i guess not..
where is the kid even located on that thing?

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

where is the kid even located on that thing?

in the basket

[rezznor]

http://www.cnn.com/2009/US/10/15/colorado.boy.balloon/index.html

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

blackhawk is 5 mins away from the balloon...this is getting crazy.

[YAWN]

just flipped the news on, that thing seems to be going so fast. i guess he is in that little bottom of the muffin?

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

just flipped the news on, that thing seems to be going so fast. i guess he is in that little bottom of the muffin?

yeah it does seem to be going fast which makes me wonder how the blackhawk is gonna be able to pull of this rescue successfully..

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

looks pretty low now...yelp only 900 feet offf the ground now.

[beasly15]

this sh*t is about to land.

[rezznor]

I don't think the kid is still in there.

[BankShot]

blackhawk is 5 mins away from the balloon...this is getting crazy.

My first reaction was to fly in a chopper, drop down a special-op-trained soldier on a rope, and hook that bad boy to the chopper.


Seems like there are plenty of realistic solutions. :confusedshrug:

But when its going at over 25 mph, its very difficult to get near the balloon without hitting it and causing it spiral.

[bisk]

youd think we would have a way to rescue this kid but i guess not..

I could see Bush back in the day making Defense spend a couple billion on a special Balloon Interception Team, together with the training and deployment of one.

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

yeah he is very close to the ground now...he will be landing going 25-30 miles per hour...well it's about to land.

[YAWN]

i cant even see how to get in there.
oh **** its coming down

[picc84]

A 6 year old death-defying daredevil. Kids gonna get tons of pre-teen ass from this. Better load up on juiceboxes and lunchables to keep his energy up.

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

it is on the ground.

[InspiredLebowski]

Thing's coming down soft as hell, that kid's in there he's probably ok

[beasly15]

that son of a ***** made it!

[BankShot]

But when its going at over 25 mph, its very difficult to get near the balloon without hitting it and causing it spiral.

And it touches down....

Anyways I thought they should have flied above the balloon, dropped a rope down and had a guy go down and attach it.

[Nets fan 93]

it landed

[ihatetimthomas]

Why are they not going in and opening it up?

[Richie2k6]

Yes!!!

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

what is taking so fcking long to open the god damn door?

[InspiredLebowski]

Sooo...it's empty?

[jjswifty]

i dont think anyone is inside.

[ihatetimthomas]

They must have already found the kid

[rezznor]

I'm telling ya, i bet they already found the kid's body

[v-unit]

They're beating that damn balloon like it kidnapped the kid on purpose.

[Nets fan 93]

Looks like he fell out:eek:

[DonDadda59]

Damn, looks like he already fell out :(

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

this is retarded now...just fcking retarded. no kid is in the balloon...wow

[BankShot]

It has been confirmed that there was no one in the balloon

[beasly15]

They're beating that damn balloon like it kidnapped the kid on purpose.

:lol

[Nets fan 93]

doesnt make sense... The kid couldnt have been in there... it was sealed

[Richie2k6]

Just tear it open like it's Christmas morning for God's sake!!

[ihatetimthomas]

He probably just let the balloon go without getting into it..

[bisk]

Of course man.
Ever since Nipplegate they work with a delay of picture, and once they saw the kid fall out they quickly edited/cencored it so that we all didn't get too shocked...

[picc84]

It has been confirmed that there was no one in the balloon

Whoops!

[gts]

what is taking so fcking long to open the god damn door?staric electricity charge..it's mylar..that's why they tried to cover part of it in dirt to ground it before anyone touched it

[InspiredLebowski]

What a letdown, I wanted to see Jason Bourne swing down into that thing out of a Blackhawk

[beasly15]

i'm confused:confusedshrug:

[Richie2k6]

This went from a nightmare to a blessing to a nightmare again for his parents. Where could he be?

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

staric electricity charge..it's mylar..that's why they tried to cover part of it in dirt to ground it before anyone touched it

wow u should be an expert on-call for cnn...they said they were throwing the dirt on it to weight it down from flying again...lol.

[beasly15]

so we followed a damn balloon..

[rezznor]

for the family's sake hopefully the kid accidentally launched the balloon, got scared he would be in trouble and is hiding.

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

This went from a nightmare to a blessing to a nightmare again for his parents. Where could he be?

well aparently his family member is the one reporting seeing somebody falling out.

[picc84]

I'll bet anything this kid got a D on a test at school and wanted to soften the blow. "MOM I'M HERE! I'M ALIVE! Oh and I failed a test at school I'M SO HAPPY TO BE ALIVE!"

[rufuspaul]

Did he fall out or was he never in there in the first place?

[v-unit]

I expect major compensation to be awarded to the balloon for the false image the media gave it and the beating recieved by investigators. It's like balloons don't have any rights anymore :confusedshrug:

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

I'll bet anything this kid got a D on a test at school and wanted to soften the blow. "MOM I'M HERE! I'M ALIVE! Oh and I failed a test at school I'M SO HAPPY TO BE ALIVE!"

:oldlol: a 6 yr old mastermind like that should never get a d

[beasly15]

I'll bet anything this kid got a D on a test at school and wanted to soften the blow. "MOM I'M HERE! I'M ALIVE! Oh and I failed a test at school I'M SO HAPPY TO BE ALIVE!"

lol somebody needs to take the camera crew and beat the sh*t out of the dad and give us some real news.

[bisk]

Can't believe I wasted all this bandwidth for an online stream which I could use for a pre-season nba game.

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

the family was on the show wife swap...whatever the fck that is.

[brandonislegend]

So wait wtf was he inside the ballon or not?

[YAWN]

wonder if this balloon had a twitter account like @whitebentley

[picc84]

Or kid wanted house to himself to flog the dolphin. "Freakin moms always home, man...what can I do...*sees balloon*

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

So wait wtf was he inside the ballon or not?

no...he is probably dead...probably fell out. now saying he might have never been in the balloon to begin with. this is confusing.

[brandonislegend]

sounds to me like stewie from family guy is back at it.

[ihatetimthomas]

no...he is probably dead...probably fell out.

They say he likely did not get into the balloon

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

They say he likely did not get into the balloon

yeah just heard on cnn and updated my post..

[v-unit]

YAWN and pic are killing it :roll:

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

if the kid was never in the balloon to begin with..i wonder if this family is gonna get billed for this ordeal..lots of resources were used.

[DonDadda59]

They say he likely did not get into the balloon

SO... basically I just spent a big chunk of my afternoon watching a muthafu*king hot air balloon floating around in the sky. This is some real bullsh*t.

[InspiredLebowski]

Probably.

I'm banking on this being a marketing stunt by a genius of new media. Pops decides to make a line of weather balloons, what better way to structure a product launch?

There are several reasons why these parents should be flogged to death, the first of which is that they named the kid Falcon.

exactly i was supposed to be studying for an exam for the past 2 hours. :banghead:

[rezznor]

Ok, what if the dad killed the kid, and then launched the balloon to to cover the murder and distract the police?

[GOBB]

So wait wtf was he inside the ballon or not?

No one knows. He could have been and fell out. Or he wasnt and is missing.

[rezznor]

so now we have a missing child. how about a release of his picture?

[bisk]

Ok, what if the dad killed the kid, and then launched the balloon to to cover the murder and distract the police?

Dumb the body somewhere, with several heavy bruises and broken bones so it would look like he actually fell out the balloon...

[jbot]

i read that it finally landed but they didn't say if the kid was still in there or not. idiotic parents. having a homemade balloon in your backyard is 1 thing but they should have had it locked up or something.

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

well he is def not in the balloon and somebody on cnn made it seem impossible for the balloon to lift with the kids weight inside...i don't understand, but that is what they sai.d.

[GOBB]

They released a photo of the kid. Also had people who know the father talk about how weird he is doin strange and unusual things.

It would be best to hide the body and let it decompose rather than try to plant it somewhere and pretend as if he fell out the balloon. Why? The cause of death can be determined and when its said "injuries were not a result of fallin from sky" then you're behind bars pal.

he could have accidently killed the boy, then put the body in the balloon and release it. leave the door open so he falls out for sure. maybe we are thinking too much into this.

[jbot]

Well yea, with today's Forensic science etc...
but then again, if he was flying over large plain areas (which I don't know, cause I really wasn't following it), then finding the body is gonna be pretty difficult in the first place. So to make sure, better give body some bruise and broken bones to eliminate all kinds of suspicion/doubts...

[beasly15]

Publicity stunt

yeah, these wife swap people just wanna be on tv.

[GOBB]

Lets be honest...as a kid I would have loved to do this. In fact I remember jumping off things holding helium balloons in hopes I'd float. So to have a huge helium thing where you could fit and liftoff (the kid doesnt weigh much) would be extremely fun. But as a kid you dont realize how dangerous it is when your ass is up up and awaaaaaay. Yo that ballon was high as f*ck.

Imagine if the kid fell thru ur roof onto your bed as you sit there online posting at ISH. I'd probably grab his arm until he screamed "ouch you're hurting me, no homo" and told the f*cker "Fix my bed!"

I thought that was kinda the point...thinkin too much into it all. :oldlol:

[GOBB]

Is the kid hiding because he is afraid of all the shyt he done started? Or is he stuck in a tree by his underoos?

[ashar008]

so what is he alive or dead?

i actually saw this episode of wifeswap one time, i saw some guy yelling about how he married an asian woman because they're submissive and western women are too "mouthy" and then she said something to him about how his lifestyle was dangerous to his kids since they don't go to school they just run around chasing storms, the guy isn't a scientist he is like just a nutjob that runs after storms on a mini-bike and shoots those rocket kits you build from walmart at a tornado. he was seriously a nutjob like she said something he didn't like and he starte dplaying a harmonica repetitively real crazy and jumping up and down. looks like he finally managed to kill one of his kids.. i like how they're labeling him a scientist, maybe if i go outside and put my dick in the dirt i'll be labeled an earth scientist, he just does crazy pee-brained ****, like he was talking about magic and pyschics and aliens and **** nothing scientific at all just getting his rocks off doing dangerous stupid ****.

also i think its obvious this moron made this thing for a child to go into it, an adult could not fit in that little plywood cardboarded door on the bottom

Yeah I just turned on the news after reading this thread and they are still looking for the little c*nt.
they keep talking about "finding him" if he fell out of it? uh..pretty safe to say he is dead if he fell 8000 feet

[Mista Kool]

Here's the episode of Wife Swap with 6-year old corpse Falcon and family: http://www.casttv.com/shows/wife-swap/heene-silver/gfsrci

[ihatetimthomas]

kid alive, found in garage in a box

[Noob Saibot]

the boy is alive, he's home safe. Joker was hiding the whole time.

[gts]

kid alive, found in garage in a boxthat's good to hear.. I'd hate to see it end in tragedy

[ihatetimthomas]

that's good to hear.. I'd hate to see it end in tragedy

Yea no doubt. It seemed more and more that he never even got into the balloon. The attachment where he would be was not on the balloon and supposedly the weight would have been too much to carry

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

i love how they keep saying great story on cnn after they just used all of them emergency rescue resources for nothing. blackhawks were called, all them cops, firemen...

[RedBlackAttack]

I like how all of these news types are acting like they are happy that the kid was found alive in the garage. These bloodsuckers wanted a tragedy, so that they could keep the coverage going for weeks.

Just that quickly, they are back to talking about healthcare.

I hate the media.

[GreatGreg]

Suck it national news!

what a joker.

[beasly15]

i don't believe in child abuse.. but this little f*cker is asking for it.:no:

[Noob Saibot]

I would be pissed if i was the police, firemen, news reporter, whatever If i drove 40 plus miles to follow this balloon thinking some kid is on it and find out he's alive back in his house.

[beasly15]

this dumb b*tch is saying this is a happy ending..

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

nah, you wouldnt be pissssed. at the end of day your still getting paid. now whoever has to pick up that tab? yeah, they'll be p!ssed. the news reporters gained the most from this ordeal.

Umm the boy was found, harmless. Possible hoax by the parents. And you still want them to harp on this situation? Bring on the healthcare news please.

You missed my point. I don't think they should even be wasting their time on sensationalized incidents such as this one. The discussion should be about our multiple wars and real issues (ie: healthcare).

I was just pointing out the fact that they are parasitic degenerates that prefer a tragic situation over a 'happy ending,' so to speak. They are putting on this charade that they are glad the boy was found unharmed.... They're not.

I agree... Back to real discussion of real issues... Until the next sensationalized possible tragedy comes along and the vultures will flock.

[iTwistAnkles]

im just glad that kid is safe, even though he never went on the ballon

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

They thought he was in the balloon, but he was in a box the whole time in their garage.

yeah it was weird..the whole entire time they had "experts" coming on saying it would be near impossible for the balloon to go up with the kids weight inside.

[v-unit]

Can everyone take in the Japanese wife AKA Ballon Boy's mom?

She is hilarious haha. Making fun of the guy with the mullet "He does so much cleaning in his house, I think he is hypnotized" (His wife is a hypnotist). Says the kid's acting "is a sucks" and then when he sings right after he acts she says "I think its a good idea to move onto acting" and even makes fun of mullet guy for being a family chauffeur (sp?).

She is hilarious would be a leet mother.

great read. Attention Whoring at its finest hour. PB has nothing on this.

[MarloStanfield]

i heard the father/family was on CNN and showed really badly?

can anyone confirm this?

seems like a giant publicity stunt.

[SCdac]

First of all this was a total non-story once it was realized the kid was alive and fine... why CNN is beating it to death I have no idea... Second of all, I thought I recognized that guy, the father. Him and his wife were on a particularly dramatic episode of "Wife Swap" on ABC or Lifetime. Probably been mentioned already but I'm not going to sift through 14 threads to find out.

By some people who can't come to terms w/ their 15 minutes of fame being over. The parents should be thrown in jail.

Possibly the most painfully awkward thing I have ever seen. Wolf should have pushed the issue. Hilarious.

[No.45]

I can't believe this is actually headlining CNN. There's more important stuff to worry about.

And you know this family's crazy when...

1. They were on the show Wife Swap
2. They named their kid Falcon. You gotta be kiddin' me....

Wow, that was... awkward to say the least. But at least the truth is out there, just a massive publicity stunt. Like I said earlier, the parents should be put in jail and the kids taken away by social services, the parents are clearly nut jobs and they used their innocent 6 year old as a pawn in this deception. Sick, sick people.

:oldlol:

I love it. I was against this sensationalized bullsh#t a few hours ago, but this family (most notably the dad) is just too fascinatingly odd to turn away from.

It is obvious what transpired prior to the kid being reported missing... Watching this guy squirm in his seat is something to behold. :applause:

He could face criminal charges, though.

[RedBlackAttack]

I love how the dad basically refused to ask 'Falcon' what he meant by "we did it for the show." He knew that an innocent kid wouldn't understand that this was all his dad's hair-brained scheme and the kid might spout off on some more of the grimy details of the plan. :oldlol:

HOLY **** that was ****ing awesome!!

Kid is A++++! would laugh again!!1


Falcon: you guys said we did this for a show
*fart*
Dad: yeah

I didnt hear about this at all, nor did I care... but now its just priceless

:oldlol: Kid dimed out the family on Larry King live?

[rufuspaul]

We should all be allowed to slap the dad for wasting our time.

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

that dad is gonna be bankrupt if they really do find out it was a big hoax...eithen know i think cnn & all the other news outlets should help with the bills.

[ihatetimthomas]

The family was on the Larry King show. He asked the little kid "didnt you hear them calling for you when you were hiding"? The kid responds yea....and then looks up to the dad and says "you said we did it for a show". The dad looks a bit shocked and the mom goes "no..no"

There is going to be a sheriffs conference. Maybe they are going to investigate this thing further. If this was a publicity scam, those parents need to burn in hell
