As the homemade balloon took to the air, Richard Heene blasts wife about tethering. While world worried, 'balloon boy' was safe in attic http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=7e7_1255709203
This guy is as narcissistic as The One in the white house
That thing could not have lifted a chihuahua.................much less a boy..............
Now, there is no question that this was a hoax and both parents knew the entire time that the six year-old kid was not aboard the balloon.
Make them pay for the ‘rescue effort’ and make them spend some time in jail.
And that is certainly saying something.
Yep, I have a feeling he is going to owe some money to a few agencies.
Yes, it does. But it seems to be a tease. I am sure there are also legal issues, being hotly pursued.
As soon as I saw the wife swap guy I figured it was a publicity stunt. This was a tremendous waste of money, people power, emergency resources and time.
During that chase one of those rescuers could have gotten hurt. Not to mention all the people they upset.
bttt for later viewing
Seriously? the 'world' worried?
From what I saw, there’s no way he could think that child was aboard that thing. I don’t even see where the child could have gotten in it, but the dad was there the whole time as it lifted up. This doesn’t sound exactly like the story he told Wolf Blitzer last night.
That was the title of the post on Liveleak, not mine.
Probably why he addressed his comment to #1. That's the way it's done. Don't take it personally.
These parents are idiots! Did you see the pix the dad drew of the alien he SAW? Did you see where the mom said they were both descended from aliens? That ‘her boys are so unusual/ they burp and fart at the table.’”??? Oh hold me back — I would not PAY to be a teacher who had those kidlets. And of course, the parents VOTE. As will the children!
Padded room.
Yes if this footage was from yesterday they knew theywere sending people on a wild goose chse and owe for everything including the hours that Denver diverted the airlines to other airports!I’d also want to see social services look into what they are subjecting those kids to!
Well, at least that is one thing I might consider a real possibility.
“That thing could not have lifted a chihuahua.................much less a boy..............”
A guy called Hannity during the middle of all this drama and said it was impossible for a balloon that size to carry anything over 8 pounds, and was certain without a doubt that the boy was not carried off. He gave some pretty impressive mathematical calculations that convinced me he knew what he was talking about. All about how many square feet you need per pound of lift, and he said that balloon was much too small.
Hannity sort of blew him off, just saying I hope your right, but... Where Hannity could of taken that bit of information and scooped the rest of the media, he continued to let the show get caught up in the media frenzy, doing the popular thing. I like Hannity and Fox News, but too often they let drama beat out real investigative journalism..
As soon as I saw the thing when I got home, I knew that that boy was never in it.............
