Topic: 6yr old trapped in balloon thousands of feet in the air | |
---|---|
Let me make one thing very clear to everybody who wants to claim it was anything other than a very sad accident, without having any facts. It is physically impossible to keep an eye on a 6 year old child every last second of the day, non-stop. I canthink of any number of ways the child could have done this without it being a case of negligence on the parents part.
One example only. Mom is cooking dinner int he kitchen, unable to see the backyard (or wherever the balloon is). dad was with kid working on balloon but took kid in the house while he ran to use the bathroom. While dad is in bathroom and mom cooking dinner, 6 year old sneaks back outside to play with the BALLOON. Something that big would only need seconds, less than a minute to be out of reach of anyone on the ground. Some people need to grow up and realize that there is such a thing as an accident, no matter how sad or terrible it is, and not try to automatically blame somebody for what is an accident. |

I can almost guarantee you that boy was never in that baloon. I saw the video and there is no way that much helium would lift the balloon with a 50lbs kid on it, let alone fly as fast and spin around.

If you read the CNN article, it states that the boys brother said he saw the boy climb into the balloon.

Calm down now
Calm down! How much time was this balloon up on the air How much time between the lift Someone figuring out a child was inside And the media arriving How far an area did this falling balloon cover Why was the media called in on this? On a slow news day. The media can pull some ****! I wonder about all sides. All the time If it was a small area. Did they find the kid yet. I stopped watching And never rule out parents despite the beautiful family portrait! Just my. Oooh soo humble opinion |
