It's very simple to see the answer. Balloons have a certain type of air pressure and because it is greater than the air around it, it climbs. However, when the air pressure in a balloon is less than the air pressure outside the balloon, the the balloon will start to descend.

How does gravity affect an aeroplane?
We measure it as a constant force pulling the plane toward the center of mass of the Earth, which usually coincides with the perpendicular to the ground. For simplicity, we call it "straight down".
What is the force that causes unsupported objects to fall to the ground?

Why don't normal balloons stay in the sky?
Due to the weight of the balloon. A balloon is merely a capsule full of air so it will fall to the ground as the balloon weighs it down. A helium balloon will rise into the air because helium is less dense than normal air (i.e. it weighs less). The air inside the balloon is the same density as the air outside. The balloon material itself is heavier than air, which causes the balloon to sink. If you decrease the density of the trapped air, such as by heating it or replacing it with hydrogen or helium, the balloon may become even lighter than the balloon material and an equal volume of normal air, in which case the balloon will float or rise.
Why does wet helium balloons fall?
Helium filled balloons eventually fall because the helium molecules escape from the envelope of the balloon, both at the neck of the balloon and through the material of the balloon itself. The same occurs with air-filled balloons but air-filled balloons do not float to begin with -- they fall to the ground no matter how much air you put in them. In order to float, the gas within the balloon must be lighter (less dense) than the gas outwith the balloon. Inflating a balloon with the same density of gas that surrounds it will not make it float upward because the weight of the balloon alone will make it fall under gravity. Moreover, the elasticity of the balloon compresses the gas within, making it much denser, and therefore heavier.

Why does a hot balloon fly?
A hot air balloon flies because it is filled with hot air. Hot air rises and causes the balloon to lift from the ground.

What makes a helium balloon float?
helium is a light mass of weight in which will float unlike a hevy object that will fall to the ground
What causes things to fall to the ground at different speed?
Gravitational force of attraction....
How do you kill Tingle in Majora's Mask?
You can't sadly unless you have gameshark or hack Although, you can pop his balloon and watch him fall to the ground. =)
What causes the soil and rock to fall?
When the ground thaws, the force of gravity causes the soil and rock particles to fall back down. But they fall vertically, toward the center of Earth. The result is movement downhill.
