think a 6 year old kid could hide for 6 hours without having to go to the bathroom?
The dad is a self proclaimed “mad scientist”
The brothers didnt notice he wasn’t in the balloon that went up?
My guess is that charges will be filed in the case. Also, the police searched the home and premises? Not very well, obviously. And dad knew the balloon never had a box attached to the bottom, yet this went on for hours? Also the brother keeing his story straight under questioning? Stuff doesnt add up at all right now.
MNDude: Suppose you were an 8yo... saw your brother get into the balloon...
Now, all of a sudden, this HUGE 20’ balloon starts rising rapidly... and keeps going up. What are your eyes going to be on? The ground, or this massive balloon that you may have had some part in getting your brother to climb into! Forgive me if I’m truly gullible, but I can easily believe that the child didn’t notice his little brother still on the ground but instead he was riveted on the balloon!
Meanwhile, the 6yo knows this is a real no no oopsie! ... goes to hide. Who needs a bathroom when you’re 6?
You really must have had a tame childhood to not be able to imagine this being an honest incident all around! I can see it as honest from every angle!
