I spent a substantial amount of time working with Mr. Richard Heene and his family, during the spring/summer of 2009. I assisted Mr. Heene with several documents pertaining to a proposed Reality Series. I have several of these documents/emails, which contain credible information that the balloon episode was in fact a publicity stunt/hoax, perpetrated by Mr. Heene. I have already begun the process of disclosing this information to reporters, so stay tuned!
OK, so the most obvious question I have is one that everyone seems to be overlooking. Where the fuck is the door on the balloon? how would he get inside it without popping it? Do you see a person being able to just walk into that?
man is it just me or when you watch that it seemed like somthing out of a movie it looked staged like the way he was talkn and the press pushing him for more information.
FBI needs to lead an investigation into these people and how or maybe entertainment industry can be involved. Somthing not right and everybody should raise eyebrows.
Nagelshube-it's the same media that made Jon osling a celeb. Two people fuck, have a bunch of fucked up kids, and suddenly they are Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Same mentality at play here
I don't even have kids and I know that nobody that stupid or negligent should be allowed to keep their kids. What is next? Man makes a homemade nuke and kid pushes the big, red, flashing button?
No, just the parents. The guy with the Ph.D who knew from the beginning that his balloon didn't have the lift to carry a six year old child into the air!! And the "mom" (she shouldn't even call herself that) who had every good mother in the U.S.A. in a state of panic for a poor little kid! They should be sued for our governments time and prosecuted!! Or were they just negligent and therefore deserve to lose their kids?
It's not his fault...His mother is WHOLE GOOK and started the whole thing!! I say slap the b@tch across the Atlantic for lying to the whole country....Do you think her SCIENTIST husband didn't know from the beginning that his balloon didn't have enought lift to take a pair of chop sticks into the air? Let alone a child? DUH!!!!!!
A SHAME THE NEWS MEDIA STILL BUYS THIS----"authorities believe the story was legit" Lol, Police don't prosecute publicity stunts THIS GUY IS GETTING A BOEING CONTRACT AND A BOOK DEAL, (even if he ADMITS it was a stunt) but i feel sorry for them because now it stinks so bad the media is gonna turn on them shortly. father might get charged with fabrication or abuse of 911 or whatever they can charge, they get creative
They are LIARS!! They borrow money from people and dont pay it back. They ran away from Los Angeles where they had a production company that went bankrupt. Now they are in Colorado and have been on Wife Swap twice as storm chasers. Now this? Richard Heene needs to be prosecuted by law enforcement. Richard and mayumi have already made a 'parody' video' of balloon boy. They planned this and know how to make high quality videos. Colorado police will be called
I don't watch reality shows so I didn't know this family was on Wife Swap. Now that I do know it sound like this was a scam by the parents to be on tv again. That's pathetic.
Not only does this man expect us to believe a helium balloon this small to even be CAPABLE of flying off with a child in it (let alone to such heights), but when Blitzer was trying to ask Falcon why he did it, Falcon mumbled something about "doing it for a show", his mother said "no", and when Blitzer asked the father to clarify what the boy said, he went completely off on another tangent, not only evading the question, but appearing EXTREMELY evasive when doing so.
This reminds me of the episode of mythbusters when they proved that a LEAD balloon could fly, THIS balloon was made from Mylar, not lead and had 100 pounds of lift, the boy weighed 60 pounds. i just sent in a request on the mythbusters site to see if they would do an episode on this and take the exact same balloon with the same size and dimensions and see if it would lift a child, they could use Buster to simulate a 60 pound child.
My conclusion is based on the observed size of the balloon. On top of that, I also concluded that if officials believed he was in the balloon there must be some damn good reason for that.
this was a scam on cnn im 90% sure that when they asked the kid why he didnt respond to them yelling his name he responded "you said it was just for show"
Yeah, I have two little nephews around these boys age. They totally would play a prank or something on us like this. Where they'd say one was missing while he hid somewhere. I just think that this went too far way too fast.
yellowgroove are you fucking retarded? Are you? People have been flying these weather baloons for decades now! He has done it multiple times. There are presedures to this, and he goes by them. I made up my mind. 50% of people who post on youtube are stupid fucking retards. So that means 50% of you should go fuck off and die somewhere so us non-stupid fucking retards can finaly get this earth back to where it should be.
Haha. You know the only reason the media jumped on this story was because of the possibility of a tragedy. The lame ass American media loves sensationalized, ultimately unimportant stories like this, and they all got fooled by a little dipshit child today. Suckers. Move on to the next tragedy for ratings. Fuckin' vampires. Happy Halloween, America.
lol i would charge the family that was so set up i watched the whole thing and i found some skeacy sceans that you guys probably didnt see cause when i was looking at that thing flying i saw something movie inside that container the place where you sit in it or where they said he was in it like moved it was weird......that was scary when the showed that box falling i thought he was dead foresure im just glad that kid is ok
these people should be arrested for wasteing taxpayer dollars, for even thinking of making this crappy aircraft to chase storms, sightsee, or whatever. that kind of crap is one these people mind. they should be arrested. Both parents, and those children should be in foster care.
I totally AGREE with you. First he climbs in a "box" attached to the jiffy pop popcorn tin, then he hides in a "box" for four hours. Hmmm.... Something isn't quite right here. I smell a cover-up and it smells just like jiffy-pop popcorn !!
I agree 100% this could of easily had a tragic outcome, what if it was his neighbors kid and that kid snuck into the balloon and floated away? now what if the neighbor kid ended up falling out of it and dying? the owner of that balloon would be facing multiple criminal charges including negligent homicide or man slaughter. also, what if a news helicopter hit this thing and crashed also? this guy isn't too bright IMO, and at the very least he will be facing child endangerment charges.
The father is no stranger to the media. He set up crazy experiments before trying to get the media's attention. He was a storm chaser and done stuff like drove through a hurricane, and chased a torado on a motercycle in which he sent video footage to the media. He was also on that Wife Swap show. This guy looks like an attention grabber and if you ask me I think he set this all up himself. This guy obviously is looking for his 15 minutes of fame.
na man they are both in on it they are both aliens man he was about to hop in than the po po was on to him so he hoped out and went to the atic to make more alien baby in attemped to take over the world but he got denied pussy
Is it possible he climbed into the balloon but climbed back out **after** his brother last saw him there? Before it took off into the air? Or did his brother say he saw it fly right away afterward? Kids can be unclear like that. Also, why was he hiding? What kind of life makes him fear that much at 6 years old? Maybe authorities should keep an eye on the parents.
americanos torpes tienen toda la tecnologia y los medios mas sofisticados pero no piensan...nunca buscaron en el primer lugar donde debieron hacerlo...un niño de 6 años es mas listo que varios cientos de adultos!
Es lo mismo que hizo Bush en irak...busco fuera lo que siempre estuvo dentro de casa...
16 sec "where was he?" says it all. What he didn't want to reveal was they found the boy hiding in a box in the attic. The attention seeking family probably set this up as a publicity stunt. If you follow all the links, and backing story it all has a bad smell..
This was a hoax. The father is a self-proclaimed scientist. Let's watch Oprah interview them and find out what really happened. LOL ! God bless America !

Not with helium! Maybe if it was a spherical envelope, but not with a saucer shape like this.

acoti 2 years ago
your observation is based on what exactly?
This kid weighs around 30 - 40 pounds, you would need at least 3 times the volume to lift that much weight.
I've built a lot of balloons to lift camera's and gliders, I can tell you that a balloon of this volume has around 15 - 25 pounds lift.
Do the math!
