Status: offline 		Now CNN has some sort of balloon scientist explaining that a balloon that size could never have had enough lift to carry off a small child to begin with. Makes sense to me.

CNN says the basket was never breached

Status: offline 		We can only hope that he was low enough that he could survive the fall. But the picture wasn't clear or they couldn't tell what the dark spot was... so it had to be pretty high. Sky diver's have fallen from pretty high and survived... we can hope.

Now another expert is saying that the balloon could have lifted with 100 pounds or a bit more and the box most likely would have fallen off early on, which goes along with what the witness' said and the picture.

Status: offline 		They just showed a pic of the box falling it seems... it was about the right size and under the balloon. They are now trying to search east of Plattville. They may need help, they said something about it earlier, so anyone in the area... you might be able to help.
