christianscoasters Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Looks like the Wife Swap episode's been taken down from YouTube, but there's always this. http://www.balloonboygame.com/ What about Wife Swap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandaman Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 ^The family in question participated in Wife Swap a couple of years back, and apparently they didn't exactly paint a picture of happiness... or reasonable sanity on the father's part. Anyway, not that this hasn't gotten enough needless face time, but the sheriff's department announced it was a hoax. So... yeah. Go about your daily lives, folks. The skies are safe.

gisco Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Let me see, if I thought my kid floated off in the balloon I think I would have called 911 first not the FAA. I would also be following the balloon in my car and would have been the first to the ballon when it touched down. I don't think he thought this out to well.

terrancew_hod Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Somehow I don't think Dad is going to make balloons anytime soon; he has some local, state and federal expenses to repay. At least I know the push feature of the CNN iPhone app works. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebl Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 ^ Dad won't be making balloons anytime soon, but maybe Dad ought to go someplace where they make license plates... Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netdvn Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Just heard on the radio that the parents are just looking for attention and publicity. They apparently wanted their own reality show and pitched a whole bunch of stuff to a bunch of different networks... The dad has his own YouTube channel where he makes rants and shows homemade video of him and his children doing dangerous things. We really need to stop giving this guy attention. Maybe he'll go away... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Yeah this needs to die fast. KT just saw video of the balloon on TV and goes "Look! Balloon Boy!" Not cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcjaco Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I really hope they press charges, and take the kids away. These are two very unfit parents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
