Looks Like He Got... Carried Away...



Earlier today out in Colorado a 6 year old boy decided to get inside a box attached to a weather balloon made by his parents.  Obviously his parents had no idea this was taking place.  The balloon took off and was in air for over 2 hours and traveled over 50 miles.  All news stations followed the balloon the entire time worried to death for this little boy.  Well, the balloon finally landed and the boy was no where to be found. After watching some of the video more closely they discovered that they found something drop off of the balloon and one point.  Was it the boy?  Probably.  Investigators are currently searching the area where they believe the boy could have landed. 
Is it awful that I find this kind of humorous?  Don't get me wrong, I feel bad for his parents and his family, and I surely would never wish harm on any child, but I can't help but giggle at this.  Here we are, watching this balloon for a couple of hours, can't even do anything about it... then it lands... so much anticipation, and the boy isn't even there! 
What makes it worse is the fact that the 6 year olds brothers were on their roof video taping it and talking about it.  (Atleast that is what their neighbor reported) 
Just because I think its funny, I do hope the boy is ok.  I really do.

If you missed it, check out this video.


Also, my boyfriend found this comic.  I found this funny.  Again, I'm sorry that I find this hilarious.  I have a sick sense of humor I guess.

I will post another update for if and when they find the boy.
