Falcon Heene was reportedly the boy stuck in a hot air balloon. (UPDATE: IT LANDED, NO ONE IS INSIDE). CNN says his older brother Ryo Heene is the one missing. The six-year old is the son of Richard and Mayumi Heene of Ft. Collins, Colo. Richard is a storm chaser and scientist. The parents were on "Wife Swap" and returned for the 100th episode, so information on the family is online. They apparently sleep in their clothes so they can leap from bed and run after a storm.

As I said a few posts back, maybe its some kind of publicity thing. Thinking thats more realistic now we know they were on Wife Swap

A 6 year old boy got into a home made weather balloon and it took off and went 60 miles. The only witness to the boy getting in was his older brother. The balloon landed and there was nobody inside..
Iceman
15-10-2009, 08:22 PM

Not necessarily, the boy may be afraid of all the attention that happened and is scared hiding somewhere in their neighbourhood. (I'm aware this is a long shot but it's still a possibility).

15-10-2009, 08:36 PM
One thing I found fishy, and I noticed that right away, but didnt think anything of it at the time, when things like this happen, it usually takes a while before the identity of the peole concerned is revealed, let alone the identity of their parents brothers, and their family pictures on the news. To protect them from being harrassed, they usually dont reveal the names, until a resolution. BUt in this case, we knew everything about them, while the balloon was in flight.
Iceman
15-10-2009, 08:37 PM

They will give him some milk and cookies and send him to bed,he has had a tiresome day.
