The guy's routine is full of holes. First off, where on the balloon could the kid have crawled in at? He would have had to cut his way into any interior pocket.

And even the way the dad asked the kid why he didn't answer when they called him (just before the kid let the truth out) sounded posed and false.

Guy thought he could outsmart a bunch of other grown-ups.

One wonders how this bizarre brush with fame will affect the kid in decades ahead.
