Child stuck in air?? - The Orange Mane

iDENVER · 10-15-2009, 12:05 PM

on every tv channel there is a 6 year boy that climbed in hot air balloon in Denver, CO.

UberBroncoMan · 10-15-2009, 12:06 PM

Yeah it's all over the national news.

Seriously wtf lol.

I just hope the kid ends up alright.

this is some scary stuff. they say he could get up to 6000 ft and it is about 7 degrees up there

Hogan11 · 10-15-2009, 12:09 PM

That's messed up.

Mr. Elway · 10-15-2009, 12:10 PM

wow how the heck do you even handle such a situation? Get him on the radio and try to walk him through it?

UberBroncoMan · 10-15-2009, 12:12 PM

The kid's either crazy or has balls of steel to jump into that thing.

Mr. Elway · 10-15-2009, 12:13 PM

It's not a regular hot air balloon, it's some kind of experimental craft. WTF?

BroncoDoug · 10-15-2009, 12:13 PM

they just said the boy may have just fallen out

there is no radio, its a 6 year old child that crawled into it unnoticed

Sassy · 10-15-2009, 12:15 PM

where were the parents?

Flex Gunmetal · 10-15-2009, 12:15 PM

He just floated out of Fort Collins and he's in milliken/ft lupton now. lol

iDENVER · 10-15-2009, 12:17 PM

he's gonna freeze to death up there. he needs help

NYC Bronco · 10-15-2009, 12:17 PM

Bronco Boy · 10-15-2009, 12:18 PM

The father is a storm chaser, so I assume this is a weather balloon.

Hogan11 · 10-15-2009, 12:19 PM

Looks like it's coming down or deflating or something now

iDENVER · 10-15-2009, 12:19 PM

gonna try and launch a helicopter and grab it from the sky apparently

Who said that?

All I heard was that the plywood the kid is on is very thin.

That One Guy · 10-15-2009, 12:22 PM

That sucker sure is swinging back and forth. Kid must be terrified.

bamanjam · 10-15-2009, 12:22 PM

That thing seems to be travelling pretty fast too. Not to mention, the rapid deflation. I hope this ends well, but the odds seem against it...

SonOfLe-loLang · 10-15-2009, 12:22 PM

well, ummm, iguess the experiment was a success?

19Morton77 · 10-15-2009, 12:22 PM

I dont think the kid is in there. THat thing is totally sideways. Sick feeling right now but i think he fell out. He should be at least 50 pounds and that thing shouldnt be swinging like that. My prayers are with him and the family, but i just dont think he is in there. Back to NFL channel and the Broncos vs Pats rewind.

Mr. Elway · 10-15-2009, 12:22 PM

He didn't fall out. Denverpost.com has a video to the live news feed. His dad is a mad scientist who built this crazy balloon.
