I am just glad the kid wasn`t in the balloon, I was holding my breathe when it just cleared the power lines

I knew it was a hoax from the get go. They ballon would barley be able to lift a cat much less a 60 lb. kid. Discovery channel is your friend to learn about such things people.

I thought hoax as well. The dad likes attention. He was on wife swap, and I'm pretty sure he called the media before he did 911, if that isn't a flag on the situation I don't know what is.
