Well, maybe it’s more like that episode of “The Simpson’s” where Bart pretended to be down a well and the world united together in song and charity to help Bart out only to find him hiding nearby.

Balloon Boy, as he will forever be known, is a 6-year old boy from Colorado who was thought to be stowed away on his father’s experimental balloon filled with helium. The balloon soared to heights of 10,000 ft and went across 2 counties in a 2-hour flight as the world watched and wondered if the boy was still alive.

Simpson's Did It First!

It turns out the boy, named Falcon [seriously], was hiding in the attic.

Later it turns out that the father, a Martian-loving conspiracy theorist, was part of the 100th episode of ABC’s “Wife Swap.“ This whole ordeal is going to make a great movie one day!

And then there’s the music video. This video [supposedly] of the Henne boys is a lewd rap song that only makes the whole story sweeter.
