Falcon Exposes the Family

By now I'm sure most of you have heard about the Heene family and little 6 year old Falcon who supposedly floated away in a balloon. Here's a link to CNN's coverage.

Anyway, the world thought this little 6 year old was in the balloon flying away, out-of-control. When the balloon landed, there was no kid in the balloon. Then we find out he was "hiding in the attic" the entire time.

People were real concerned about the safety of this kid. Everyone watching was terrified for the boy. Being the loving mother she is, my wife even felt like crying for the poor guy. Could it be that it was all just a publicity stunt? Could it be just a selfish attempt at trying to capture another 15 minutes of fame for this former Wife Swap family? As more information comes out, and as the family begins to get more attention, we might be seeing an entirely different event unfolding.

Check it out. Here's the family on with Wolf Blitzer from CNN. When Wolf asks if Little Falcon heard the family calling for him, Falcon says yes. His dad, Richard Heene, asks Falcon why he didn't come out then? Falcon says "you guys said we were doing this for the show..." and then rips a fart (LOL). Richard tries to explain it away but I don't think its too hard to tell what's really going on.
