They are concerned about the boy's health---it is cold up there and the air is thin......

CNN is now reporting that the boy may have already fallen out this is unconfirmed:(
Not to make a joke, we need a wing walker to grab the ropes that are hanging down

yeah, hypothermia was my first thought. Well, actually my second, right after "what parent has an easily accessible "aircraft" full of helium with a six year old boy around, especially after the movie UP?"
Good luck, little one.

Relief that he's not in there, but deeply troubled that they dont' know if he was in and fell out (as reported by his sibling...in which case they should be able to narrow down the search pattern significantly). One can only hope he is a terrified little boy hiding somewhere so he doesn't get in trouble...

Hope he's alright. I hope he did not fall out when it was up there.

I wonder if maybe the kid didn't untie the thing, then get scared that he would get in big trouble, and is just hiding out somewhere?
