After a nice big family hug, everyone involved should get a big smack across the head.

(CNN) -- The 6-year-old Colorado boy who is believed to have set adrift a helium balloon Thursday, prompting ground and air searches, has been found alive, authorities said.
The balloon landed south of Prospect Springs, Colorado, on Thursday afternoon.


He was found in a box in the attic at his family's Fort Collins home, according to authorities.



But why in the attic hiding in a box... That's my question....

Maybe got scared when he saw everyone looking for him. So he hid.

CNN~

"In a later interview with CNN's "Larry King Live," Falcon said he heard his parents call for him from the garage.

When asked by his father on-air why he didn't respond, the boy replied, "You guys said we did this for the show."

When the father was pressed by Wolf Blitzer, who was filling in for King, to explain what his son meant, he became uncomfortable, finally saying he was "appalled" by the questions, and then adding that Falcon was likely referring to all the media coverage."

I knew it.



holy cr@p... they went on Larry King ALREADY????

This father is a moron! Why would he go on national tv after what transpired with the "rescue" misson for 4 hours.

He is dumb enough to then go on Larry King Live and risk the kid getting asked a question with a LOADED answer!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

TMZ just spoke with the Larimer County Sheriff's Dept. who told us they are aware of Falcon Heene's comments on "Larry King Live" tonight -- and are "investigating the situation."

Cops also tells us they've been inundated with calls from tipsters who wanted to give cops a heads up that the 6-year-old, who was thought to have been trapped in a runaway home made balloon earlier today, explained to Larry King Live, "We did this for the show.

I'm watching the Today show and they are interviewing the family. I know they boy made a comment about "for the show", but after seeing the interview this morning, I don't think it was a publicity stunt. The dad seems pretty upset about what happened and is holding back tears. I want to give him the benefit of the doubt.

And I actually thought the opposite, I thought he seemed full of crap for some reason. This whole thing is just so strange. On another note, I was craving Jiffy Pop all night long. Chat Icon

I remember this family from wife swap-they are wackadoos who feel that it's okay to let their kids run around unsupervised, playing by throwing rocks at each other and a bunch of other stuff.

I definitely think it was a stunt.

I'm just glad the kid was not up there. But, I do think that if it is proven to be a stunt that the family should have to reimburse for the cost of the searchChat Icon

ITA with you. Sounds like it was planned and they SHOULD pay back the money for the search efforts.
