THIS is the moment a young lad was left devastated after watching a €100 gifted to him from his grandparents for his Communion soar into the sky.
The cash, which was tied to the end of the a gold balloon, was placed inside a box while his family members eagerly filmed the special moment.
The video footage, shared to Twitter by users Dubs Life, shows the boy eagerly untying the blue ribbon around the large gold balloon sitting on a box.
The gold balloon wrote: "To our hansome granson on your communion".
