That thing could not have lifted a chihuahua.................much less a boy..............

Yep, I have a feeling he is going to owe some money to a few agencies.

“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..

Yeah, I didn’t see a whole lot of lift going on there. Try releasing a party balloon and watch how quickly it rises.
