I just saw the video on yahoo a few minutes ago. I had no idea what was going on, they just kept showing a balloon flying up. But then I read up on the story a little bit.
The boy was NOT in the balloon, it looks like it was staged. In an interview the news asked why he didn't come out of the hiding place, he said "Because it was for a show". So I think it was staged to get publicity.
