Is This Family Full Of Hot Air?
October 18, 2009
On Thursday, October 15, 2009, people in the United States were gripped with images of a hot air balloon adrift with six year-old Falcon Heene as a cast away. For more than two hours the balloon was in the air and traveled over 50 miles while various agencies scrambled to find a way to safely bring down the balloon and save the boy. During that time, news stations showed live pictures, internet sites were frequently updated, and when witnesses stated that they saw a basket drop from the balloon, all seemed lost. After the balloon landed it was discovered that the boy was never on board, rather he was in a box in the attic of his family’s garage. When interviewed on live television about the events of the day, Falcon stated that they “did it for the show” and became physically ill on two other televised occasions. This story is still developing and officials are determining what (if any) charges can be filed against the family. click here for limerick
