Boy trapped in homemade balloon...

the whole time I was thinking about 12 Monkeys and how the kid was just hiding in the barn when they all thought he fell into a well . . . :D
 
I would not rule out this being a prank pulled by all the kids in the family. "ha, ha, let's fuck with dad and mom....oh shit the cops! Shut up and hide!"

I wouldn't be too sure about it. Police will want to ask the kids in the family questions about this.
And? Kids are apt to lie, even to cops-- more so to cops if they think the hammer is about to fall hard on them.
 
And the award for "Most Anticlimatic News Event of the Year" goes too....

Man, I've had better climaxes with $2 hookers.
 
^^Not even the family, just the kids being kids, things got out of hand, and surprise like kids will do, they covered their own asses till things go to hot for them.

If it was a prank by the kids, they probably mom and dad would freak for a few minutes or an hour and out pops little bro. When the cops rolled up, then they panicked.
 
Holy crap. :crazy: I'm glad the kid is okay. :eek:

They're going to be laughing about this when they grow up, if they're parents don't kill them.
 
glad the kid's alright...

I keep expecting popcorn to burst out of it...
 
Wow; an interesting thread! I won't point any fingers, but I can't help noticing that the family has everything to gain from this. After spending a bunch of time and exerting effort to make a homemade balloon, there isn't anything quite as rewarding as seeing it on CNN. Lucky coincidence? Maybe. In any case, it gave media news something interesting to cover, and nobody got hurt, so cheers.
