No kidding. This story was just unreal.
- There's a boy in a driftaway balloon!
- The balloon is down!
- There's no boy in the balloon!
- Oh, wait, here he is... right at home all along!
- Good thing he didn't come out before the balloon landed! That would have been anticlimactic!
In addition to the cost associated with the rescue, I wonder how much the lost workplace productivity amounted to? At my job there was a lot of shouting over cube walls as the story unfolded.
Some of the tweats we tracked were priceless - if not heartless :)
