PS, I pray the kid is ok.

Balloon just landed...the child wasn't inside. Story still unfolding.

What kid?

Balloon is down, boy is missing.

Ugh.

I know what happened to him.

The little boy is hiding in the bushes, laughing his ass off.

I heard the "mother" called the local news instead of the police.

And the local news called the police.

I'll bet he hit the ground like a plastic bag full of vegetable soup. If Mythbusters has taught me anything, it's that gravity is a cruel mistress.

Maybe we'll just call this one a 27th trimester abortion.

CNN said this family participated in the TV show "Wife Swap".

Was the child white? I don't want to have to wait until I see whether Greta or Nancy Grace cover it or not to find out.

Ever notice that a Bill Hicks bit fits in almost every thread?

"Boy you're right, the smaller he gets, the cuter he is. God, I wish I had a camera right now. With a telescopic lens. Love to get a picture of his face when his pudgy little legs hit that farmhouse down there. Aah, aah, kids. Ha hha. Stewardess, since we got a breeze in here can we smoke now? Fairly well circulated at this point. Woosh. True story. But, you know."

Have they contacted his real father?

Well now that you put it that way, yeah. Before I was just laughing at the picture he painted. Thanks!

You're welcome, narcissist.

IDIOTS!!!! That balloon is lucky to lift 10 pounds!!!!! Look at the size! The media are a bunch of idiots!!! That balloon would have to be 5 to 10 times bigger to lift a 6 year old!!!

This story is very strange. At first glance I have to believe there is more to this than meets the eye.
Hopefully the boy is alright. God help the parents
if this is some type of hoax.

This is such a hoax and the media is falling for it!!! An 8' diameter balloon is lucky to lift 2 pounds!!! And it is spherical. This balloon is not and has less volume. It is at most 12 feet across!!! Do the math!

Damned NORAD dropped the ball again and didnt shoot the balloon out of the air!

I am going to go with Proper and Sam on this one until we know more.

I know the amount of hellium needed to lift a 4 year old off of the ground on MythBusters and I am guessing 20 times that size.

"It would require such a large number of balloons (3,500) to lift an average four-year-old girl of 44 pounds (20 kg) just a few feet off the ground"

There was no kid in that balloon. I am going with attention seeking whores.

Pun intended?

This was released just minutes ago by Sarah Palin's office:

"Hi America, I appreciate speaking directly TO you, the people I serve, as your Governor.

People who know me know that besides faith and family, nothing's more important to me than our beloved Alaska. Serving her people is the greatest honor I could imagine.

I have just learned that I have been smeared, besmirched, and defamed by a person on DrudgeRetort.com who calls himself "Dufus." This is just the latest example of the kind of thing that I and my beautiful family has had to deal with since John McCain named me to be his running mate and then screwed up our campaign so bad that a colored guy sits in the oval office today. But I do not want to dig up history.

It's pretty insane - my staff and I spend most of our day dealing with THIS instead of progressing our campaign for 2012 now. I know I promised no more "politics as usual," but THIS isn't what anyone had in mind for my premature retirement.

If I have learned one thing: LIFE is about choices!

And one chooses how to react to circumstances. You can choose to engage in things that tear down, or build up. I choose to work very hard on a path for fruitfulness and productivity. I choose NOT to tear down and waste precious time; but to build UP this state and our country, and her industrious, generous, patriotic, free people!

But that being said, this Dufus character has gone too far. I have ordered my staff to find this person and put him on the tundra with a a pair of flip flops and a target on his back. I promise that I will shoot this lie-spreading jerk right in the back from a helicopter.

Life is too short to compromise time and resources... it may be tempting and more comfortable to just keep your head down, plod along, and appease those who demand: "Sit down and shut up", but that's the worthless, easy path; that's a quitter's way out. And a problem in our country today is apathy. It would be apathetic to just hunker down and "go with the flow".

Nah, only dead fish "go with the flow". Today I will get revenge.

Now, I hope that since I have made this statement, the liberal media will just leave me alone. This should be the end of it. If they choose to write about this, or to diseect my statement today ad nauseum, just remember that the only reason they are doing it is because they fear me now, and fear me in 2012.

Thank you."

Wisgod, if you were in the same room with me, you would cower in the corner and shit all over yourself.

Someone check my math.

Average 6 year old boy is 46.2 lbs.

407 Liters of helium will lift one lb.

That makes 18803.4 liters to lift the average 6 year old.

That's about 664 cubic feet of helium

That means that a spherical helium balloon (granted, this balloon isn't a sphere) would have to be 10.8 feet in diameter. Or more.

IMO - the boy either fell out shortly after takeoff or is hiding because the trick they just played on Dad backfired and is now national news.

Sure Eddie. And then I eat them with Faba beans and a nice Chianti. Anything else?

He was never in the balloon. The local news are idiots. A small balloon like that filled with helium could NEVER lift a 6 year old kid. It would take about 6-8 of those things to do it at least. It never would have taken off with the kid inside.

You certainly are tough on the Internet. I'll bet your beer gut is ripped after that display.

All I know is I watched that Mythbusters and the amount of balloons needed to get that kid to hoover was 36,000. I couldn't determine the volume per, but guessing 2 liters.

But that collection of balloons was 10-20 times larger than that little thing on TV.

There was no kid in that balloon. If there had been, it would still be on the gound in the front yard.

" small balloon like that filled with helium could NEVER lift a 6 year old kid."

If it was a cylinder the the lifting capacity would be 112 lbs at sea level.

If I had my druthers I would have shot that balloon down with a sling-shot and would have giggled my ass off as that little brat screamed in agony as he collided with pavement!

Either way, if it turns out the parents were deliberately seeking attention, I hope someone actually does kill their kid. Furio looks like he'd be willing and able.

#57 | POSTED BY SYCOPHANT

Fair assessment.

If the balloon itself also weighed 46.2 lbs, the (spherical) diameter would then need to be 13.6 feet across.

A 13.6 foot balloon would hold twice that of a 10.8 foot balloon.

I think the media owes us a dead kid damnit! We all dropped everything we were doing to follow this story and there is no pay off! I feel like I waited in a traffic jam for 40 minutes only find there was no accident causing the hold up, but just a grandma driver.

...A runaway balloon has touched down in Colorado after a 6-year-old boy untied it from his family home in Fort Collins and was thought to have been in it. The boy was not inside the helium aircraft when it landed and was found hours later hiding in a box in a garage attic.

You can tell by the grin on his face in his picture he's probably a little rascal. I'm just glad he stayed safe and sound on the ground.

And then the poor tyke hides for hours in a box in his attic figuring he'd be in big trouble with everyone for all the worry he caused. Maybe he even thought he'd have to go to jail!

NIST was contacted and said to ignore science as physics.

The balloon could have done it if you apply enough other science and physics that can't explain how it could have happened the way it did.

According to NIST, people are just too stupid to understand that once you eliminate all but the one possibility, however impossible to believe, must be the truth - and that truth cannot be believed. The possibility ruled out is the truth, if you make the math work.

Why would they pull such a publicity stunt? What was gained I wonder? Their guaranteed 15 minutes?

As soon as the media didn't get their tragic ending, they turned on the family. All three (CNN, MSNBC & FOX) had people on mentioning that the children should be removed from the home. The bitch on CNN was saying that the father should be ashamed (and investigated) for leaving kids alone is his backyard long enough for this this to happen. Someone should have told her it only would have taken 30 seconds for this to happen.....and then told her to STFU.

They also said "...and he believes in Aliens" and that he had lived in an abandoned house once. Time to tear these people apart just the hell of it.

101 is right, for once.

Nancy Gross (and Grody Van Susteren) only seem to cover missing white kids.

In other news, an amateur scientist by the name of Richard H. has conclusively proven the newly created Heene (HEE-NEE) Theorem: media coverage of a supposed tragedy is inversely related to the age and "cuteness" of the kid, while simultaneously being directly related to the amount of helium involved in the story. More at 7.

The balloon's two-hour flight played out live on television, captivating viewers across the country.

A 6-year-old boy was found hiding at home Thursday, hours after the runaway flight of his family's experimental balloon riveted the nation and led to a frantic search by authorities who feared the child was aboard the craft.

Really? Riveted and captivated the nation? LOL I think they media is trying to make this seem bigger than it was so they can imagine they don't have as much egg on their face.

There are lots of people that have no inkling of physics, orhow materials really react. MAny people think that the heavier abuilding is the easier it can fall down, rather than being even stronger because of its mass of cross connecting steel.

Also incredible amounts of people think you can melt steal without electric arc furnaces by just using carbon fuels.

People jsut have no clue of material physics.

One religion claims their early ancestor in america started a village, dug up minerals and MADE STEEL in a furnace. Impossible.

Be Well.

Read This if this doesn't just piss You off.

From Larry's TMZ Link: TMZ spoke with Doug and Joanna Abbott who told us their 300-acre wheat crop was destroyed mostly by emergency vehicles racing across their field to chase the balloon -- which also caused its fair share of damage.

The couple tells TMZ: "It does make you wonder what kind of attention the family was after by using this little boy."

Sadly, we're told the field only produces a crop of wheat once every two years, which means the couple will have to wait two more years to see the full fruit of their labors ... all because of some giant empty publicity stunt balloon.

We asked if the couple would be considering their legal options -- but they wouldn't say.

Farm Family fucked over by these fame seeking fuckwits?

"You guys said we did this for the show."

Oh yeah, they should sue.

Does anyone else think that the father looks like Colonel Flagg from
