          WTH!

          Who leaves a hot air balloon just tethered in the backyard? Is that like parking your car in the garage?

            They're saying the whole thing might have been a hoax

              No, now they are saying he may have fallen out (people reporting seeing something coming out). It got as high as 8000 feet. If he was still in there, he would have been dead because it is just a weather balloon filled with helium, so he would have suffocated.

              There are some reports that it could be a hoax.

                At this point, that would be best for everyone but the kid.

                If he is hiding out, you know he is going to be playing the game to win until he finally gets cold, hungry, or scared because he is bound to have guessed by now it's going to be his arse when his folks lay hands on him.

                  They were on Wife Swap. Here is a picture of them and the balloon. The bottom of the balloon (behind them) is missing:

                      It looks too small to support the weight of even a kid.
