I think since he was hiding in the box he probably knew he was in trouble.

Wow! I thought that they already checked the house in early posts?? I guess they didnt look hard enough!! Thank Goodness he is safe!!

oh yeah. i had a boy hide in a crawl space once because he busted out a window..we didnt find him forever and only after he heard me say i was calling the police did he come out. he knew he was in trouble!

On the radio here in MN they had quite a few calls from people who know about balloons and they said that size ballon could not have lifted even a small child off the ground but they were still looking. Glad it turned out OK I was listening in the car but I didn't turn the radio on in the house.

turns out there was another basket attached to the bottom of the balloon according to parents. but that was somewhat a while ago. now they just found him hiding in a box in the attic! A BOX IN THE ATTIC FOR PETE'S SAKE! JEEZ! I GUESS THEY DIDNT LOOK HARD ENOUGH HUH? haha well at least he's safe. my feeling is that the kids probably let the ballon go by accident and thought they were gonna get in trouble so Falcon hid and the other one lied. and/or the brother saw Falcon get in, did something else and missed him getting out, saw the ballon fly away, and told the parents thinking Falcon was still in the balloon. that's my feeling. Boy, they're gonna have some explaining to do/be in trouble later on haha, but for now his parents are probably just happy and thankful that they found him, he's safe, he's alive, and he's well and they're probably just enjoying him/the moment right now. but boy later on they're gonna be in trouble! haha I'm just glad they found him.

I wonder what the parents thought about it?? From what i hear they are pretty irresponsible.

 

[ShrekDawg]

idk I think they were on wife swap before though so/but idk I know that much though haha idk how responsible they are though I think they are storm chasers.

 

[ShrekDawg]

by the way, not dissing storm chasers/saying they are bad (in fact i think they are very cool), just stating that they are storm chasers and just happened to state it that particular post about responsible parents so it may seem that way but its not intended so sorry

I still think it took something other than one six year old to set the balloon loose.

I predict butt-whippins of epic proportions.
