This was going on for a couple of hours..if some kid fell from the sky, I think someone would know..wouldnt ya think?
He could have fallen out at the very beginning, before the news cameras were on it.
Or else he was never in there at all.
No.
You’re talking about something high in the sky, from which distance a smallish object would look very small (if visible at all).
Plus you’re talking MILES of ground covered, and lots of “open” space. People just won’t notice unless they happen to be looking, and it happens near them!
