i'm sure sooner or later some idiot is gonna lay the blame on Up lol.

hope the boy gets down safely, but it would be one hell of a lesson for the parents if he ends up lost at sea.

Holy shit that's fucking horrible. Before you start blasting this kid he's 6 years old, think about some of the stupid thoughts you had in grade 1. Hope he somehow gets down safe.

the parents are dumbasses for having such an aircraft at home and leaving it in the reach of a 6 yr old.

Exactly as no 6 year old kid can make something like that.

some speculation on my part:

-built as a halloween prop and not designed for passenger(s)
-filled with enough gas to get it off the ground
-added weight of a six year old would require more gas then they had in it and the cardboard "cabin" wouldn't have supported an individual even a small child.
-kids accidentally let the balloon go and panicked and the smaller kid is hiding not necessarily in his house.
