I was listening to Hannity the whole show.

Not ONE of the callers had any clue about what they were saying.

One of them multiplied the 20ft x 6ft... and said “120 cubic feet couldn’t lift a child”...

That is true... but he forgot to multiply by 20 again (approx) so his answer was way off.

Others were thinking it was a hot-air balloon, since that is what Sean kept saying. True: that size a hot air balloon could never lift that much, but it is HELIUM.

If I could have gotten through, I would have been MUCH more capable of giving a reasonable guess at things than any of those.

This WAS EASILY able to lift a boy. And, unfortunately, it seems to have done so.

Except that it didn’t.

This set up is comprised of 7 mylar balloons that took a grown man to 4,000' for ninety minutes.

How many cubic centimeters of helium does it take to lift a hoax?
