Boy Thought to Be in Balloon Found Hiding

[NubTubTeam]

@SSgtParmer lol

[DarkMage2X]

Ugh, what plan did the Dad have when the balloon was eventually going to be found? "Okay son, you stay here for the rest of your life so we can fake cry for the next ten years, and be on news shows."

[techdeckdude75]

when he chased it y didnt it keep rolling and show him open it or look inside?

[ExtraTerrestrials]

looks like parents aren't that excited about his finding

[HalfSharkGator]

what kinda balloon is that

[emforty2]

the Dad was videotaping the release of the balloon come on people youd have your kids around to watch that

good hoax bad acting

"its for the show"

[justizzle550]

Exactly.

[ston3dinok]

This is what you are supposed to pay attention to...important things like this is what you should care about, not the federal reserve destroying the dollar. Tell you're Senators and Reps. to support H. R.1207 and S.604, lets audit the fed.

[chingon711]

No fire, police, or national guard rescue came to my aid when my wife chased me down the street with an ax in one hand and a gun in the other attempting to chop me up for watching football on our aniversary...my gawd! talk about a double standard here folks! put the little brat in juvinal hall to teach him a lesson!

[lemoncheese07]

hahahahah!! right...its all in the money buddy

[ramiirez]

damn chings

[mathuetax]

I guess no one has seen the Mythbusters episode on how many balloons it would take to raise a child??

[USAGamingMW2]

This was setup I mean come on people!

[ahhyo2006]

It must be nice to be white in America, meaning that if it was any other, Child Protection Services would have been on the scene and take away the child pending investigation(s) are over...in court. When your white, your right. Isn't that white...I mean right? I'm not racist, I just believe in equal rights. ...and let the bashing begin.

[trojanspaghetti]

you are too a racist

[BertGriffin88]

Heenes,

This is my kind of story. The boy was safe and the balloon gently landed in a wide open field. The only thing missing were the rappellers swinging from helicopters and capturing the airborne balloon. Hell, we don't have any money and the Republicans won't let the unemployed uninsured have the health care option so why not watch a balloon fly across the Colrado sky. I would suggest that they pushed most of their lucky buttons today and might not want to be doing this on a regular basis.

[artsy24]

These people are scumbags! The damage control the father tries to do in the CNN interview after his son lets the cat out of the bag is frickin' pathetic. What sick people! Just wait until their book comes out. You know that's next. And Entertainment Tonight's gonna hire the father as their weirdo field reporter. That sounds about right.

[mdryden02]

Sounds reasonable. Also, some people even make videos about it,so that more people can watch.

I was astounded at the media coverage. What next?

[CheezyBallsTrippa]

facepalm

[chingon711]

miraculous story, both sad and upsetting...the little brat could have prevented emergency services from wasting money searching for him...typical white kids i tell ya.

[mdryden02]

The boy is obviously Asian American. Dad is white, yes.

[PaulineWalters]

The neighbor said that the family at 1:00 said they get a lot of free "reign" meaning they do whatever they want. They should be made to pay for having using up all these services. They love attention it seems. If the father was so smart had did the brat get inside the ballon, close it up and go off and what about the weight? I am sure it would have held him down. The child serives should look at this family as I too saw them on Wife Swap and they are not normal. Is a Lifetime movie next?

[duailo]

Holly shit!!!

OMG!!

[pridelion88]

"Good Kids"

Ive missed watching OBama's Speech bc of this nonsence!

[jedimaster398]

crazy kid lol

[GiovannaNYC]

Kids LOL

[daedalusxf]

How ridiculous. No one ever stopped and asked "What's the load limit of this balloon and how much does the boy weigh?" That there would have told the authorities that no one was in this balloon. And where's the basket? Looks to me that the balloon is all one piece. What a publicity/rating stunt by ALL in the media. Shame on those who believed it!

[swordofisis]

I bet some people thought he would end up like Icarus, but instead of burning more like popping and falling! Not exactly the Partridge family, is it? Mabey that guy should be forced to hide from a white bull in a maze all night long untill the sun comes up! Lets see if that beats Homer Simpson's tv ratings! Not a very inventive inventor after all. some pretty ancient technology by todays brilliant standards of aeronautical engineering.

[Mandi7882]

Thank you. I agree 100%. It doesn't take that much brain power to figure out a 6 year old vs. a Helium balloon. Besides, I saw these folks on Wife Swap. The mother is NUTS and the father's brain is mush because he follows after her like a dumb puppy. Fine these folks. This was a HOAX.

[USAGamingMW2]

I'm glad you see the truth this was a stunt to gain money and what not. It's sad because law enforcement worked so hard for a stupid family wanting money!

[xxxFaustusxxx]

Some bad parenting right here.

[gorgeous2476]

shit, when will i learn to wait for the video to end before commenting

[trento654]

lol smoothhh

[gorgeous2476]

OMG, i think that is the same family who was on wife swap - the one with the storm chasers

[Melo15xSTAT1]

1:10 he's my hero!!!

[kewlaznkid00]

fuking morons

[mikemoair]

i dont understand the reports linking michael vick to this?

[gje313]

wow, i don't have the same thoughts as their neighbor.  sounds like a disorganized household and a lot of crying-wolf.

can't believe all the media attention this thing supposedly got across the nation. tells you about the attention span of people in America. don't think about the serious things but focus in on the car-chases and little boys flying in a balloon half way across the nation.
