There are mooring lines on the side, they could parachute into it and grab those lines and drag it down with them..... DD
Whatever they are going to do they better do it soon because it doesn't look like tha tthing can stay airbourne much longer
The idiot talking about the kid not being there because it would be stable is competely wrong. Because they kid would not be in the MIDDLE of the basket, he would be on one of the edges and cause it to be sideways. DD
It would be fascinating to sit in on the group that's been assigned to rescue. I can't imagine the ideas flying around right now (no pun intended).
That's what I was thinking. If they wait until it comes down due to deflation...he could get really hurt or die just from the crash. Hell, it might fly into some power lines depending on where it comes down. They are going to have to find a way to get control of that thing fast or the kid doesn't have much of a chance.
Officials were concerned that a boy who drifted away from his parents' Fort Collins, Colorado, home in an experimental helium balloon may already have fallen out of the craft, an undersheriff said hopefully hes still in there.....and can land safely somehow.
Yeah but there's at least a chance it could float down to the earth safely. Or that the national guard or whatever could do something. But if he fell out when it was high up he is most assuredly dead.
How come the just don't chase it down with like a coast guard chopper and lower down someone to hook it to the chopper?
