Media Hoax

The boy that was believed to be in a home made hot air balloon floating away from the house was really hiding in the attic. After investigations by police officials, they concluded that the ordeal was nothing but a media hoax. Now the parents face felony charges.

  1. You never know it could have been real, plus i would hope they could come up with a better hoax than that.

  2. Richard Heene, the father of the 6 year-old child, has a criminal background and was arrested in 1997 for vandalism, vehicle tampering and disturbing the peace.

  3. I watched that whole deal on the news this week end. If the parents really didn't know that the kid was hidding in the attic than, that is really sad and i would've been worried as well.
