A 6-year-old boy was found hiding at home Thursday, hours after the runaway flight of his family's experimental balloon riveted the nation and led to a frantic search by authorities who feared the child was aboard the craft.
More than two hours after the balloon gently touched down in a field with no sign of the boy, it came clear he was at home, hiding in a cardboard box in the attic.

Given the size of this helium balloon, i'd have thought its lift capacity would be significantly less than a six year old's weight.
Did nobody ask how heavy the kid was, or how big the balloon?

Funny,
But it doesn't seem to be created by the kid himself ...
