I can't believe so many people fell for this, the media and the authorities. It would have taken massive amounts of helium to lift that boy and distance of the ground. It can be done Mythbusters proved it. But in a ballon that size there should have been no lift with a 6yo on, in or holding. It smelled fishy when I heard the balloon proportions.

When I tried to view your link it told me there was some kind of threat (a virus or something) and I shouldn't or couldn't view that page. I briefly saw the picture of the boy climbing but then it quickly blinked away.
Do you know this to be safe, or maybe to have vulnerabilities?
I'm not sure what kind of virus blocker program I may or may not have.

I guess it's normal to send your kids on balloon rides in a plywood box.
