"Officials are trying to rescue a 6-year-old boy who climbed into a balloon-like experimental aircraft built by his parents and floated into the sky over eastern Colorado."



It's being followed by some news helicopters, and some sites have a live feed.

The family has released a photo of the child:

Update: The balloon has crashed, nobody was found inside.

While it was still in flight, there was speculation that he had already fallen out.

Best-case scenario is that he was never in it in the first place.

Now they're saying that the door was securely shut when the balloon was found, making it very unlikely that he was ever inside.

Chances are he knows that he's in a world of shit, and is hiding.

That was one thing about that Up movie. There was no massive news coverage about a house flying out of a major city, with thousands of balloons...And that same day, a boy goes missing. COME ON PIXAR.

HEY. IT'S UNREALISTIC THAT NO ONE NOTICES THAT THREE STORY, SEVERAL TON HOUSE BEING CARRIED AWAY TO SOUTH AMERICA. THE ONLY THING UNREALISTIC IS THAT NO ONE NOTICES.

I find it hard to believe that someone so young could have risen to the rank of admiral.

Charges are now being filed in the incident.

There's suspicion that the whole thing was a hoax orchestrated by the parents.

They did voluntarily participate in that retarded Wife Swap show, which just screams "attention whore," so I wouldn't be surprised if it did turn out to be a hoax.
