  • That's a weird looking balloon.

  • @revmuddy It was a hoax, the kid was never in there.

  • I can't really tell how big it is, but by the way it's tilting you can tell there's no ballast in the bottom.

  • What the h**l where they thing?????

  • While the police were chasing that balloon, 5 houses burned down killing 8 people, 3 people were shot, 4 stores were broken into, and 7 people were mugged.

  • HOW BIG IS IT I CANT TELL!!!!

  • @jdonovan74 It was a setup, there was no kid in their, it was a publicity stunt.

  • i am also glad the "parents" were charged with wasting time there are many ways to get on tv but this was in realy bad taste

  • look its pedobear in plane

  • now i wanna shoot it down

  • I wonder how's the family doing right now?

  • @rochelimit55555 probably doing the dishes in prison.

  • i wanna try that

  • its not little..

  • i thought it was being shot from the ground! the chopper made me lol

  • GUYS THIS IS FAKE, the boy was hidden in hes home and the parents wanted to come on TV.

  • @lolern2008 no shit sherlock

  • @AceGG101 thats true, boii.

  • Omg you people are so stupid that little thing could not hold a child and still be able to fly.

  • Yeh but it was still better to be safe; certainly shouldent have made internatinal news...

  • @melovebirds

    well it did :P

  • i fink it is

  • it looks like, a flying muffin

  • I'm glad the state decided to charge the parents for their little stunt...what kind of person teaches their kids to be such dirtbag, attention whores???

  • @ecsgrl lol u jelus u dnt get attention

  • What you need to get is a dictionary

  • @ecsgrl ADHD.

  • @ecsgrl 90 days in jail is a bit over the fucking top.

  • That thing does look freaky though.. Imagine getting stuck in there...

  • people it was all a stunt! The parents are serving like 90 days in prison and stuff.

  • it was all a fraud... wow his dad and mum shud be sorry mates...

  • NO SHIT?!!? I THOUGHT IT WAS REAL!~?

  • lmaaooo

  • DO A BARREL ROLL!!!!

  • IS HE IN THAT?!

  • nope it was all a stunt

  • the people just wanted attenion....idiots...i heard that the parents were bein' interviewed and the boy was throwing up, they didnt care.....

    now im not sure abot what i said i never really got to see it.....why im looking through these vids actualy

  • It was a HOAX

  • They should have put at least some living thing in that UFO balloon like a roach, ants, mouse, lizard, etc, a tiny cup of water, and a pot of small plant and fruit to see if they survive. Henne is a mad scientist. Now we all have ideas for our UFO's. You the Wright Brothers were thought to be crazy back in the days too when they invented the airplane.

  • wtf there is no kid in that thing someone slap the media a few times

  • Total complete false bs hoax.

    On top of all the good comments so far:

    They spent weeks putting this ballon together but nobody wonders where the 6 year old is when they go to launch it?

    Earlier kid got "reprimanded" for going in the ballon and now they dont wonder where he is/

    He is the so called scientist, why would he expect his wife to tie the balloon down?

    Any way they wanted lots of attention and they got it. Looking forward to the perp walk for both of them

  • Not to mention how they thought he could be in a helium environment and survive. Or even if it was super heated air.

  • I originally thought the cockpit was separate from the helium chamber, so a passenger could breathe normal air. Then when it came down and we got a good look at the balloon, I realized how small the cockpit was and that it was part of the balloon and not a separate compartment.

  • he wasn't in it his familly was "putting on a show"

  • i know

  • wow fuking fake ass baloon no way to even get in it

  • how would a ballon fly with a 6 year old in it??

  • hes not actually in it

  • Yeah, i know i was saying its obvious its a hoax because a 6 year old boy is gonna stop a balloon from floating

  • Same way it can lift over 3,000 pounds

  • you're retarded, hot air balloons fly with over 1 ton of weight every day.

  • americans rule

  • he wasent in the balloon he was in the garage

  • no in the attic

  • does any one agree with me the dad is a jerk he tells the police that his son is in the balloon just for more publicity who wants to own a ......bill nie the science guy show?

  • them ballons wouldnt be able to carry any more than a new born child if if there was som one in there you would see it moving. it was just the dumbass dad trying to get attention to get his own reality show.

  • i was listening to the radio tht day and turns out tht he isnt in the balloon at all....he was back home hiding in a box in there attic... so he IS ok.. i guess the older brother lied about him being in it or sommething....

  • NIGGER WITH AN E-R PLEASE

  • its flying super fast..... and its a ufo

    Its we who put our hands over our eyes and complain that it is dark.

    Jesus rocks/udo2:)

    shine on:)

  • Seriously; how many pounds can a tiny helium craft like that lift; maybe 1 pound?

  • Yeah, it's kind of hard to tell it's exact size while it's in the air. But I saw the video where the balloon supposedly gets free and carries the kid away and it was so obvious. That balloon is not nearly big enough to carry a kid. Maybe a chihuaha but not a kid.

  • A chihuahua. Or Whoopie Goldberg. "I'm a little black woman in a big silver balloon!!!"

  • I guess that is a movie reference I don't know. Can't say that I've gone out of my way to ever see a Whoopie Goldberg movie. lol

  • I think it was Jumpin' Jack Flash. She was being towed away in a phone booth and she's on the phone to the cops, "I'm a little black woman in a big silver box!"

  • Over 1 ton dumbass.

  • cover up for real ufo anybody?

  • wow that balloon is bookin! weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­ee

  • it was the helicopter making it look fast you dumbass.

  • Big hetero waste of time!!!

  • Big woopy deal

  • Ya think???

  • here's another view of the balloon

    /watch?v=iFoDldeBngk

  • everytime they ask the kid why he hid in the attic he pukes his brains out , anybody else thinking child abuse? >.>

  • just a publicity stunt

  • looks like the balloon forgot one thing... the kid dumbasses

  • The thing looks really funny.

  • what a waste of time

  • i bet the scientologists put him in there.

  • He was never inside...

  • i bet those scientologists kidnapped him from the hot air balloon they put him in.

  • hehe

  • fly falcon, fly!

  • That looks like a flying saucer.

  • How the hell do you get inside of it??

  • hahaha too bad he wasnt inside the whole time hahahaha

  • hmmm.... this would be sad if he was actually in the hot air balloon -.-

  • GOD BLESS YOU

  • did someone sneeze?

  • HOAX HOAX HOAX HOAX HOAX its a HOAX

  • how could he be dead if he was hiding in the garage

  • i just read in Yahoo News that it was a HOAX

  • It was a hoax. The family was trying to advertise themselves so they could get their own reality series. I can't find good links to it, though.

  • to bad the kid wasnt in it

  • yes he died! balloon boy is dead,bubble boy is dead the dutch boy is gone! DEAD!

  • Not the dutch boy ,just seen him today .

  • no he was huffing paint thinner,and he passed!

  • what is green

    and smells like pork?

  • He was in the Attic the whole time......

  • humans are so stupid.

  • Kingraptor, not to sound rude but aren't you human also?

  • Sadly..yah..even worse im american :(

  • he wasnt in the balloon you retards they found him in the attic

  • Haha, i bet the people filming are singing, "Hey there, ba-loon boy, flyin in the sky but your really in the attic"

  • why would anybody sing that?

  • Theres a song that goes like that, but its just "blimpie boy" instead of balloon boy and fancy free instead of attic.

  • its kinda funny, i was looking at the sky laughing at nothing and I seen this huge balloon go by....then i looked on the news and laughed some more o.o...

  • How in the fucking fuck dick is this a HOT AIR balloon?

  • HELIUM BALLOON

    NO FLAME FOR HOT AIR

  • The Sheriff has finally filed charges in regard to this attention 'thief' that has used his little kids to fuel his fantasy to have his own reality SHOW, his kid spilled the beans on national television. He should pay restitution to all the tax dollars wasted in this elaborate hoax!!! $

  • You know his dad is probably so mad at his son right now for saying ''It was for a show''

  • fuk yea, falcon and his brothers r losers. have some damn composure

  • yuk what a waste of my time here..even to comment on this stunt...

  • He was a great troll until he revealed that it was all for media attention and not lulz.

  • i dont think they faked it. its a 6 year old kid that haws never been a actor and just randomly said the whole camera thing because its been on tv before and if it is fake and the parents only wait "tv time" they did a damn well good job didnt they

  • if someone shot that... BOOM!

  • Boom? shooting a hot air balloon wont make a boom. But this is not a hot air balloon so AP need a kick up the ass for that blunder. Apparently it was a helium filled balloon but that also wont go boom as helium does not ignite. But to take it one step further, even if it was filled with something flammable, a bullet wont make it explode, a bullet is not fire, it would just put a hole in it, DUH!! grow a brain dummy

  • when i read about this i laughed....i knew it was fake all along....i think the parents should be imprisoned. they got everyone involved in this including the army national guard

  • Inside JOB!

  • i was looking at this how the hell can he get inside it a balloon no entry.

  • Boy does not float AWAY! XD

  • It was a publicity stunt! I hope the parents get the bill for the waste of rescue workers. And if the boy was really inside the balloon, I would have taken a pellet rifle and fired 2 shots at it from the helicopter and watch it float down. lol

  • we love you falcon

  • its fake... they said it on the news... btw no1 cares its a balloon with a kid... wow so exiting when i saw it i said sucks to be him and turned the channel... no1 fucking cares...

  • your grasp on english grammer sucks too.

  • do we need 2 talk right to live? nope

    get a life homo

  • they have a fucking video of them releasing it.

    It's fake.

  • Let me tell you guys something: it was a hoax. that's right! when they were doing a interview, the boy blurted out "but wasn't it a show daddy?" Also when the balloon was floating away, the brother was on the roof taking pictures. the little boy also threw up during another interview out of nervousness.

  • how the fuck could he be in there?

  • that thing looks fucking tiny?

  • glad things turned out ok but really can a jiffy bag that small float a kid off the ground?

  • it is all bullshit, come and check out real stuff on my channel. I'm just your everyday honest dude who does not use sickly kids to get some press.

  • Not a "hoax"...i think, the dad really thought his kid was missing and the boy doesn't know what he's really being ask and media blows everything up!!! If i were the dad i would be appalled too. And the boy looks like hes all smiles but he didnt know the seriousness of this,I would be scared shitless if my child went missing. Glad they safe.....and why dont we focus on world hunger or something like that :)

  • the world is a freak show and here in America we have a front row seat! lol

  • At least I dodnt look up videos of "Boys floating away on a fucking balloon" you fucking faggots. All of you probably have 2 to 5-inch penises

  • then how did you get to this video....

  • there is always one gay person who has to meantion willies inb a comment, lol and this viedo was in the news papers so why wouldn't they search it?

  • My video response is the only one worth watching. I'm a 6 year old boy.

  • Thats a UFO Damn it!!!!!

    Kid in a balloon ,cover ups geeeeezzz!!!

  • great camera on the helicopter to zoom that far
