The Balloon Boy saga continues, as the Heene family appeared on the TODAY show on NBC Friday morning to discuss little Falcon Heene‘s harrowing ordeal from Thursday afternoon.
Amid rumors (and seemingly evidence) that the event was an elaborate hoax, the boy’s father, Richard Heene attempts to set the record straight.
It seems, however, that all this media attention (and perhaps the pressure of covering up the truth) was just too much for little Falcon as he threw up on live television.
In the below video, Richard explains that 6-year-old Falcon, who last night said on live television that the stunt was done “for the show,” was referring to a time later in the day, when the boy was reenacting how he hid in the garage of his family’s home in Fort Collins, Colorado and that one of the cameramen told Falcon they were recording that video footage for a show.
I suppose we may never know for sure. Be sure to vote here on whether or not you think this was all a hoax.
