Wow you know Falcon go some how makes me want to cross out go and write punch...

[ByxKatixKandlelight]

FALCON PUNCHHHHHHH!

[xgotarox]

lol. what's with the ending? is nalts dying?

don't thank god for me. you should thank me for me :D. you're welcome :).

[heartdoll101]

I LIVE IN COLORADO and the news was going off like crazy

[taylorlawrence333]

charlie is awesome!

[doubledutchtracy]

I think the most disturbing thing was watching Falcon vomit twice on national TV. The kid looked like he was drugged out of his mind. I don't put it past that father to go as far as to drug him so he wouldn't talk. If you saw Wife Swap, the father was a complete attention hog and would have done anything to be famous!

[POOPS1996]

it was a hoax it has been proven

[anthonylka10]

yeah learn to read descriptions

[jrmyphats]

Nalts it is true, twitter is great for real time news but you cant depend on it for real news because you dont know what is fact and what is fiction.

[sonnycullen13]

it is a hoax or a publicity stunt for a few reasons:

1. They called the news BEFORE 911.

2. The boy said something like 'i did it for the show'.

3. The family has been on 2 shows before

[skat479]

ha, i know this sounds awful, but after watching that Wife Swap thing, you don't feel AS bad knowing that that kid was in a helium balloon. That family is nuts!!

[lilbitrandom22]

It's such a fake! Such a hoax!!! Don't believe the story! if you agree or disagree message me please

[19alce89]

He's not confused about Wife Swap, his Triflin parents made him do it.

[KiranGlitch]

why dont you blow up hundreds of balloons with normal air to lift Charlie up in the air. It would be so cool.

[lilbitrandom22]

But mean at the same time

[musitwo]

some serious parenting going on there :D

I do more like a "shhhhttt" to stop them

from doing dumb things.

Perhaps u should go dark again,

one of few sentimental and calm vids from u :)

Greetings from Berlin

[robinjam304]

Realtime search of social networks really shouldn't be that hard to implement, I reckon Google could organise it fairly easily. It would definitely be very useful if they could.

Anyway, great video as always :)

[electricmastro]

Falcon Flies and Tony HAWK can (sort of) fly on a skateboard, just sayin.

[lilbitrandom22]

Yea....that related sooo much

[kingjamie721]

everyone's first video game is always Mario. ALWAYS! XD

[lilbitrandom22]

So true

[spitfirecs420]

The day I have children I hope my child turns out like Charlie hes too adorable!

[eyeluvcloe]

Don't know what compelled me to click on your video, guess I was just curious, which is usually the case.

All I really want to say is THANK GOD FOR YOU!!!!

I could listen to you talk for ever, What a great dad you must be! Cute and lucky kids!

[lovecanbemagic]

oh my daughter has the same sleeper as your son! the one with the snow men and snow flakes! hes such a cutie!!

[SkitMan86]

I was watching CNN yesterday and it seemed suspicious to me. Then, I see he was fine and just I was sure.

Then I turned the T.V. back on and saw in 5 minutes something like "Why did you do it Falcon?" - "You said... it was for the show!"

Today they show the home video and there is no box, you see the dad releasing it while the kids were around and the mom was too.

Also, during the broadcast it was advertising his site so he could get a couple of thousand hits.

[ArtificialBanana]

CNN takes longer because they bother to make sure that their facts are checked and double-checked. You have no way of knowing if a tweet from a random person is accurate or not.

[HighVoltage4562]

lol my mom was on top of live feed like white on rice. but i like the vids.. keep em up!

[Tummyboxx]

Sad story D:

[Slackykid123]

did yall see on the interview with them the kid threw up

[CrayolaNinjas]

It's called a Piranha plant, not a tube-plant! And the tube is called a Warp Pipe!

You've got to teach Mario to your kids, Nalts! :P

[Artamis7777]

I thought that he was hiding in the attic, not in a closet.

[lourke123]

I thought that too. This morning, the boy said that it was for "THE SHOW" I just found out that they are in a show called Wife Swap. I dont know that show but I think they're just getting attention

[HeyItsSteve93]

Put the video up! I wanna see it.

Thank God for you, Nalts!

[gmcookiee]

FALCON PUNCH

[dmeckle]

i was watching it on cnn (working on the floors) and i think they said their first report was twitter rumor b4 confirmed. i think the rents were in on this

[Peapodpal]

it was so set up! the kid said it was for the show

[CoolJohnDog]

"It's-a-me-a, Maariooo"

[Marcusthegladiator]

I saw it on tv and called everyone i know as i never seen anything like that b4, i was dissapointed he wasnt in it. I was hoping he was, and would be fine of course.

[BoomerChick55]

I don't like to have the TV on during the day, so I heard about it on Twitter too. Thanks for the follow on twitter, I realized that you never talked back.

[jodileerenshaw]

Amen ... Thank God for all children ... and the parents who work so hard to keep them safe.

[pcgamerguy1234]

lol great vid, i reckon it was all a publicity stunt

[haloKINGSstudios]

so do i

[FallOutBoy1201]

Thank God for YOU, Nalts!!

[icklehammy]

Billy? I guess the kids got their way of calling him Billy Junior.

[onthegoodshiplollie]

its kinda of cool that twitter was the way to keep updated and it was something real a boy on a ballon but it looks as if it wasn't really as if the parents just staged it to get on tv... so if things in media in the world are happening and its not pop culture realted can we trust twitter updates to be honest and accurate?

[Somnioblivio]

we got it with the face thing... that was kind of mean naltsy...

[richis109]

Thanking god for his un-existence...

[sexiestdrood]

Omg, your kids are awesome. :D

[taylorlawrence333]

Charlies awesome!

[ItsCourtenayMmkay]

Thank GOODNESS for Twitter.

[TheSingingJane]

what a big bomb about nothing, you americans blow little thing up to HUGE HUGE stuff!! Why?

[Phibins]

Why? maybe because a some ppl thought a 6yr boy really hurt him self or even died.

it doesn't seem like such a "little thing" to me, but maybe you have a different opinion.

[TheSingingJane]

Okay okay but how can a 40pound boy get into a ffn BALLOON? And float like that trhough the air.. ? I am really down to earth..

[Phibins]

first i dont watch CNN. (mainly B/C i live in Canada.)

second, i know that a 20 cubic feet of helium would not lift even a 30 pound weight.

(but i only know this b/c of my filed of study)

But the point is, if you didnt know this... and you thought it was possible a small child might of fell from the sky, (like most people did) at least to me, IT WOULD BE A BIG DEAL.

thats all im saying.

[TheSingingJane]

OMG YEAH there are alot of st** ppl who are like AHHHH! BUT not me DEAL WITH IT. And I know FFN CNN!!

[Phibins]

????? okay..... ?????

[boogerly]

i hope you know we do get Cnn in Canada phibins

[Phibins]

i know, it's just mostly US news.

[DemonBiking]

this was a hoax by the father to get attention

[wilsonweed123]

I thought the same thing

[wilsonweed123]

I herd about that yesterday what ended happening to the boy was he found?

[wilsonweed123]

lol I don't know about that, but that would be better then anywhere else if true

[Thamnophissirtalis]

I just saw it on a news website he was found in a box in the parent's garage.

[wilsonweed123]

i would be so mad at the kid but happy hes not dead at the same time

[Thamnophissirtalis]

I think that it was a publicity stunt set up by the parents.

[wilsonweed123]

Yeah so do I.

[Phibins]

thats dumb.

[snoopdogger]

what happened to your hair?????

[LachlanRFC]

u should try it

[drotting37]

So glad it turned out well...

Love the term "Twitter Litter."

Also loved Grants very specific input about what was learned.

I guess we'll need to call him "Cardboard Box Boy" (not "Balloon Boy").

[carolperez]

thank god for nalty

[paul1967uk]

Whilst watching the balloon boy live on cnn, I reckoned it was a NALTS Stunt, and that Charlie was falcon boy.

[ExpressYourself077]

I Know That Was Scary... But He Was In The Attic

[thestalkinghead]

twitter changed what happened in england because there was a court gag order to stop a newspaper from releasing a story but the story was all over twitter so the court order was taken away later that day, and now we all know how our government knew about an oil company releasing loads of toxic oil waste on african shores, and it was all because twitter leaked the story

[stuivenga123]

I enjoyed watching your video today. You seem like a very good dad in your boys life. You Rock!

[marniespeaks]

Nalts turns into elania43

[Lopee08]

My Chinese teacher us2 beat me with a ruler......

[kingsizecobber]

soooo what you were probably not listening and deserved it.

[Lopee08]

she us2 hit everyone in class........this was in elementary school..........eh

[moviegasm]

Watched the whole thing. Awesome video. I think most people believe themselves to be more boring than they put out. I enjoyed this, and I most often enjoy your lengthy videos. Good job man!

[roadamerica2008]

Hey Uncle Nalts. Thank God for parents, such as yourself that are so involved in the childrens life's.

[Jtards]

y has he shaven his head didnt he just get a hair transplant?

[kingsizecobber]

yep but it didn't take.

[loveisgatheringx3]

That is a funny shirt, i do want one.

I don't think you have to be a parent to feel for this family and this kid like you say you did. I am sixteen and I adore kids. I teach a preschool class, and babysit all the time. When I heard about this I was actually at work and these two people were talking about it in line. But then we turned on the news, and I was so sad for the family.

[outlawnoob]

im definitely buying that shirt now

[Lopee08]

Im mexican and every time i go to home depot someone always things i work there. lol

[moviegasm]

LOL! You're hilarious.

[Lopee08]

Lol man you twitted the crap out of this balloon boy thing

[NutCheese]

I thank God for the awesome poop I took this morning!

[JokeDeity2]

Thank science!

[Libratarot]

You've a big loving papa heart. I always follow vids to the end (I don't get people who don't-I also stay & watch the credits on movies) ANYWAYS. The only thing I hated about today is like you said getting caught up in it. I am one of those I only want facts. So today was hard trying to make sure that I had the facts-of course once I started watching Falcon and his brothers youtube post I lost all interest and went off to make dinner and watch prime time TV. I still think they should get billed.

[Sammerkona]

You should have watched Fox's coverage. Sheppard Smith called it when the baloon turned up empty, he said the parents should look under his bed, he's probably hiding,

[trifoo]

FALCON PUNCH!

[lexievalle]

Go falcon Go!! haha.....

[insanenaltsfanEE]

now that I watched it to the end I think what you talked was about the boy flying away with his fathers balloon and after the balloon was landing he wasn't in there...but he is found and ok...heard it in the news...but well, what else were you talking about....oh man...just came back from nightshift and pretty tired..lol...I guess I will go to sleep now...;)

[colinchloe2229]

I'm a parent, and any story involving potentially lost children terrifies me. And, I must confess, I check Twitter first when I want to see what's going on in breaking news!! Thanks Kevin :)

-Lambkidz

[insanenaltsfanEE]

I don't know what you are talking about...do I have to watch til the end....

..and btw, did I miss something?

what happend to your hair?

[KrazyRawb]

It probably wasn't a stunt. the kid doesn't know what hes talking about.

[CwickVB]

I thank God for just being able to live!

Love your videos

[StephanieIAm]

hahaaaha i heard that too

[themaxxray]

What about Turtlelini? Poor Turtlelini.., give him another worm and all is good

[ZuuLSpAcEmAn]

It was a publicity stunt. The kid ratted 'em out.

[bbkmomma]

Speaking of Razor scooters, my son broke his arm 2x on one of those things in Jan/Mar - 1st time small fracture. 2nd time - cleared from 1st fracture and broke it 3 days later riding same scooter and required surgery. However he's still playing football this fall in 7th grade - hey its Texas! Love the talk Nalts - keep up the good work!

[Pippilly]

Can't believe you made me laugh so hard at the end there hahahahaha Funny one!

I've had by the minute breaking world news on my pooter for about 4 years now. That was my first addiction before YT. Love it!

[thebober10]

theres a reason news station dont report shit from twitter: its usually either made up BS or unsubstantiated things

like the fake amber alert

[Blondeangelsong]

Nalts My son is 5 and i was a little freaked too. It did hit a lil close to home too.

[godlyboxman]

i dont see any hair on ur head nalts

[seafoamgreennails]

put the video up!!!!!!!!!

[Paddy317]

someone got a haircut, and it wasn't deez nuts.

[Grrrstin]

ohh Grant is so adorable.

[jdwoody76]

Hahaha, Grant and Charlie were so NOT into the video...

[FoxPinkBaby]

Why is your other son never in any of your videos?

[23Belligerent]

CNN has been around since 87?

i was around 1 year old then lol

anyway, Grant, those where some cool pictures. your pretty good at drawing. think it would be cool to see some more

[xtanyafx]

cuuuuuuuuuuute charlie is such a silly boy :P

[crimsong19]

I definitely agree with you on the Twitter and news bit, Kevin!

And Charlie's in a Mario phase?

[MoL42q]

what did we learn parents?

don't name your kids Falcon, then they won't try to fly away from you for your crappy name choice.

[brooksmc]

What happned 2 ur hair nalts?

[deadlyglitch]

his name wasnt falcon! his name was fall out boy.

[sabuissuicidal]

I was terrified watching that...

[connectthecamera2me]

the wisdom of the people will not be to know not to chase down the child because of the possobility of the child being in or on the ballon, but to be comptionate enough to chase down the ballon. shame on us if we dont take EVERY possible precaution to esure the safty of the child

a smart man looks one way on a one way road, a wise man looks both ways

[deemered2]

It was hot on facebook too!

[MZMStudios]

1- Were you saying something, Kevin? I was too busy laughing at Charlie!!

2- I remember Jessica!! ..........I was 14 when that happened!

3- Kinda fitting that a little boy thought to be "flying away" would be named "Falcon"...

PS- Jane Velez-Mitchell & Nancy Grace ROCK! lol

[unclenalts]

OMG did Nancy Grace cover this and I missed it!?

[MZMStudios]

Not sure if Nancy Grace did, but Jane Velez-Mitchell devoted her whole hour to it.

[HannahRenee23]

You shaved your head

[lovelyellex3]

Your kids are precious.

[shortkid614]

So was the boy in the ballon or they just thought he was?

[miiror13]

yea he was actully hiding in a box in his adeic becase he thought he was giong to get in trouble he probly got beat by his dad he took off his dads helium ballon by accendt its like a $5000 ballon

[MaMaMcDonnel]

They thought he was. He ended up in a box in the attic in the garage hiding cause he thought he was in trouble for letting the big balloon go. Or that is what I gathered.

[beastdrummer555]

its a me.... MARIO!!! haha

[mooitz]

Appreciate this and stayed with it. Hoping you get some sleep.

[TheHumina]

Your voice is very soothing.

[ParanoidDefense]

a simular thing happened with my little cousin, we were at a swimming pool and we couldnt find him so we thought he drowned or something but he was hiding in a cooler the whole time.

[DrAlexisOlson]

Did you shave your head for your hair transplant follow up?

And did you get a new dog? I thought his name was Freddy not Billy.

[unclenalts]

Shhhh! Did I give it away? Was gonna prank the doc.

[DrAlexisOlson]

It's pretty obvious but maybe Dr. Bauman isn't subscribed to unclenalts.

[tomp714]

I was wondering the same, when did Fred become Billy?

[Steve7508]

I remember hearing a story about a little girl who was carried away by a helium balloon and I couldn't stop laughing at the mental image, even though it ended tragically.

p.s. did you shave your head?

[unclenalts]

She did?

[Steve7508]

She died; I feel bad for laughing about it now.

[DrAlexisOlson]

I think it's possible that the parents knew exactly what was going on. Falcon said in an interview that he didn't come out even though he heard his parents calling because they said "that we did this for a show".

It's hard to know for sure though.

[unclenalts]

Dang dude- I just tweeted, blogged, and changed this description on that news.

[sweetart636]

nice hair

[JimmerSD]

Yeah but what's gonna happen the next time when a kid is REALLY stuck in a helium balloon?

Nice haircut. ;)

[unclenalts]

His dad will probably beat him with the teather for always coming in last... "I'm just pacing myself, sir" he says.

[xjasongarciax]

Why did you pan away from Charlie? He was cracking me up!

Why the buzzcut? Isn't that bad for your new little soldiers?

Awesome story Grant!

A video you don't want to post on YT? OMG, the world is coming to an end!!!

I have a lot of blessings in my life Kevin and one of them was discovering your channel a few years back! Thank God for you!

:o)

[unclenalts]

Oh- he reminded me of friggin Falcon on the show. WE CRACKED UP WHEN THE KIDS WERE HITTING EACH OTHER ON CNN!

[anmoose]

I'm surprised at CNN. They really dropped this, badly. Twitter just may be on the edge of something big, as the next quantum leap in real time news coverage.

[unclenalts]

Methinks... although good debrief with Wolf Blitzer. If he could only learn you don't ask yes/no questions to a 6 year old.

[johnswackyworld]

god, i'm old!! i remember jessica

[unclenalts]

And the ensuing and fabulous "Sending Our Love Down the Well" Simpsons song!

[tinacrook]

Oops spelled your name wrong...my baddddd

[unclenalts]

I can't spel either tana

[tinacrook]

Lmao thanks hun, that made me laugh lol...and keep on a' twitterin' Kevin! lol I read them all!

[tinacrook]

wait a minute, one of the YouTube GREATS just COMMENTED ON MY COMMENT!!!! OH MY GOD! IM AWE STRUCK NOW! Now if I can just get Phil, Charlie, Kassem and Shay to do that I'll feel complete lol....

[tinacrook]

Yeah you did do a lot of tweets....but thats ok, I thought it was sweet how concerned you were....We love The Naults Family here at my house!

[H3ADY1313]

so true... I hear about EVERYTHING first on twitter... MJ a earthquake here in TX... EVERYTHING... Twitter in my eyes has REALLY changed the world

LOVE THE DRAWINGS! OMG you are good! I bet ppl would love to win some of your drawings with an autograph! GREAT JOB MAN!

The Jessica in the well thing.... I was a little girl and I REMEMBER THAT and I will never forget her being pulled out!

[unclenalts]

I wonder if we'll forget this one. I'd better get that tshirt

[winstonlocke]

This could be a potential video news idea: a Twitter news station or web show

???

[FD12346]

nalts is awesome

[NDS525]

I heard he was found at his house...

[melzaelf]

Hahah Charlie and his faces!
