Chasing Falcon Heene's Hot Air Balloon

[chenalos]

Hey cool. The helicopter is playing the high notes of "where is my mind"

[Chris07860]

I feel bad for all those emergency workers who had to waste their time over delusinal parents a lot of time and money wasted because of the Heene family

[frederic129]

lookes like UFO!

[Sorvea]

where were you when they chased the balloon... that October day....

[ctba84]

It was NOT a hot air balloon. They used helium.

[CaptN0ob]

They need one for flight simulator X.

[chowder129]

was he in it or on it cause i saw something on it

[jasminepostada]

The balloon boy story reminds me of "Jimmy's stuck in the well"

[subforsubx]

why would you make a home made baloon? you can pick one up for a dollar at most stores and you dont have to go to jail for it.

[tusnturn]

this hoax was organized his father Mr. hanus

[ingila]

did they find the kid?

[seka1986]

Where have you been?

[xxmaevegroganxx]

In Ireland

what happened??

[whyme123100]

did u read the thing

[learnl8]

How could anyone with any level of intelligence think that small balloon could hold an infant, never mind a six year old? It would have been dragging along the ground with anything over ten pounds in it.

[Republicansarelosers]

Noone in colorado as a registering level of intelligence.

[learnl8]

Lol...

[CassFitzer]

the ballon wast small, its ten feet in diameter.. :S

[catherinefan32]

it makes us think they were chasing a real UFO, it kind does look like that.

[lovepeaceicecream227]

why would these people put a BASKET on the bottom?! because it was a hoax!!

[BOYCOT4YT]

retard kidd at large...hope the sheriff will nail them

financialy and the judge will put him in jail!

[boa721]

it's a confirmed hoax

[nyxsushi]

If he was in there wouldn't he have suffocated ?and the balloon wouldn't have been able to fly???

[dablacksquad]

i heard this was a hoax

[anko8aug]

of couse the kids not inside the balloon the way the balloon floats how can it be and the kids voice will sound like a chipmunk haha just kidding.

[anko8aug]

looks like daddy wanna be famous or his kids wanna make daddy famous it's a hoax if he wanna be famous make a youtube video.or something waste ambulance police choppers time.

[sforcesrcg2374]

i think its obvious hes not in there. the kid would have weighed it down

[skaterboy5748]

Ya But It looked like it was because its loosing heliume

[shawnee2014]

75 miles = 102.7005 km & 321.3 kg gas helium for carrying the child six years for 22 kg speed  wind i,m stupefied

[Anton7719]

Makes you wonder why during all this drama...The Police were not searching the House ? Or the putting out an amber alert ?? Stupid Cops...

[Charles2337]

They did.

[boa721]

amber alert is for a child abduction, by a parent, stranger some one they might know. does your elevator got to the top floor?

[BOBTheHeadBanger]

If anyone has seen the MythBusters Episode where they lifted a 6 year old girl off the groud with baloons, they would have known that it would have taken more helium than this thing was capable of holding to even lift Falcon up 1 foot off the ground. They would have known that there was no way that Falcon was in there. And this Richard guy is a Scientist??? I would say more like an extremist with a whoredom for media attention.

[MotzaballZ]

You might be right but a bunch of balloons and one huge piece are too different things.

[BOBTheHeadBanger]

But that's just it. It wasn't as big as it looked on T.V. It was only 20 feet or less around and five feet high. It wouldn't have held nearly as much helium as it would have needed to take off with him in it. It was way too bouyant in the air and spun way too much to have the weight of a 6 year old in it.

[yewbark]

The Heene's are proven fame junkies, therefore, it is extremely plausible, likely even, they set this whole thing up.

[jennpeden]

I am sure the lil boy Falcon (i love that name it sutes him perfect) misunderstood the question. When he was asked why He thought they were talking about "WHY they made the balloon" Or something like that. AND they were vidioing it as it lifted. He was out there right befor that. Ya of course the whole thing was for a show! thats what this vid is and 100 others. thats what this family dose. WHO cares He never said he was told to hide for a show.

Thank God your Baby is safe! thats what matters

[commodore64738]

Only in america ! Dumb, dumb, dumb

[JTeam95]

@commodore64738

some americans aren't dumb, we just seem that way....and there are things like bipolar and borderline personality disorder so, don't just assume anything

[gunlover2010]

the parents got some serious explaining to do.....

the kid was found in the family attic hiding in a box....

while the nation watched a silver ballon drift 75 miles....

[nongthip]

So what do you think? Should Falcon Heene now become a celebrity and make paid tv appearances and/or should his parents be fined for negligence? No doubt tens of thousands of dollars were spent yesterday on trying to "rescue" the kid, plus all the media attention. What are the chances of copy cat kids trying the same stunt for real? Anyway it gave the world something to be amused/frightened by for a couple hours.

[britlandco]

This was a publicity stunt. Tonight on Larry King the boy was asked if he heard them calling and why he did not come out... he answered "Because you said it was for the show."

[midnightjj]

wtf i didn't see that 0_o

[bo3asmoon]

yeah lol his parents got super owned lol..

[delong757]

Both these parents need to be thrown in jail for the rest of their lives, where they cannot endanger the lives of any children. They had that fun-looking death trap sitting in their backyard where any child could have gotten into that thing and been killed. No parent with any common human decency would set up such a dangerous situation for children. These two parents are sick twisted reckless people. It is a miracle that those three kids have survived up to this time.

[YeaWhiplash]

I 100% agree.These parents are SICK.I just hope they can prove it was a hoax,which we all know it was.Put them in jail is correct.....

[d15craxx]

is the boy in the balloon or what the fuck? And how the fuck did he get inside the bitch?

[sethimine]

I agreem I was so scared.

I don't know if it will mess my thing up. I am sethimine

[clayguy1]

So glad the boy was found unharmed.. if not a bit humble
