This story had too much BORING and not enough BURNING, the entire family should have been placed in a hot air ballon, then drenched in gasoline so they would burn tumbling to the ground.

If I were the balloon boys parent's, I would pull his pants down, and spank his bare botton so long and hard, that he wouldn't be able to sit down for a month !!!

How about CNN and all the other news outlets for making this an actual news story. How about the little kids that carry firearms in other countries or are starving. #fail

You have to wonder what they do to that kid to make him hide for so long. I blame the parents, the kid didn't know what was going on.

Punishment? Why is this? Whole earth was watching this for few hours with great excitement. If anyone should pay the bill this should be the news networks - and they should pay it to the that inspiring family for giving them such a 'hot news' topic. This story generated much more revenue then the cost of engaged public rescue forces.
btw: you should expand you list of possible answers...

I'd like to know who the guy with the red suspenders was. And after the ballon was safely on the ground with no chance of going aloft decided to hack it up with a shovel. This was not his property and not his call to do this. The man owes the owner the cost of the balloon. No one else at the scene seemed to find this nessassary to do. It was wanten distruction of someone else's property.
As far as cost of the whole thing,this is what our tax money is for. Things happen. To this family today,& maybe yours or mine tomorrow.We pay taxes for fire departments to be there if we need them. We should not expect a bill for their services,that's why they exist.

I wonder why, at no point, do someone try and figure out if there was enough gas to lift the boy? I carried my fair share of heliem ballons and figure it would take quite a lot to lift anything.
