I saw this on 2nd tri & have been following the story on cnn... I cant believe it! I am watching live video & the balloon is moving so fast...  I feel so horrible for this little boy (and they say they dont know if he is still in it or not)

OMG. How nerve-wracking for his parents.

I don't know what to do with this story. I certainly hope he will be okay, but also, where did they get this thing? Why was no one watching the children around the experimental flying balloon thingy? It's just all so strange.

If it makes you feel any better, it's actually the helicopter that is circling the balloon that is making it look like it's moving really fast.

I feel so bad for him, he must be so scared. WTF were his parents thinking even building something like that?

Ditto this exactly!
