Re: Boy Trapped in Runaway Balloon!

Turns out dem was on an episode of Wife Swap

A WOMAN WHO CHASES TWISTERS AND DRIVES HER FAMILY HEADLONG INTO THE STORM SWAPS LIVES WITH A WOMAN WHO'S SO SAFETY CONSCIOUS THAT HER BOYS CAN'T GO TO THE WOODS IN CASE THERE ARE COYOTES, ON ABC'S &quot;WIFE SWAP&quot;

&quot;Heene/Martel&quot; -A thrill-seeking family devoted to chasing tornados swaps lives with a cautious family who always put safety first, on the Season Premiere of &quot;Wife Swap,&quot; FRIDAY, OCTOBER 3 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network. Each week from across the country, two very different families take part in a two-week-long challenge: The wives exchanges husbands, children and lives (but not bedrooms) to discover what it's like in another woman's shoes. It's a mind-blowing experiment that often ends up changing lives forever.

<span style="font-weight: bold">The Heene family from Colorado live life on the edge. Wife Mayumi (43) and storm scientist Richard (45) take their three kids, Bradford (8), Ryo (7) and Falcon (5), </span>out of school to go on storm chasing missions to prove Richard's theories about magnetic fields and gravity. If conditions are right, Mayumi wakes her family by shouting &quot;Storm Approaching, Storm Approaching!&quot; into a bullhorn. The family sleep in their clothes so they can leap out of bed and into the storm-mobile. Richard calls Mayumi his 'ninja wife'; she maintains equipment, drives the storm-mobile, films tornadoes and waits with the kids while Richard jumps on his motorbike, heads into the eye of the storm and launches rockets to measure magnetic forces. At home the family are as chaotic as a twister: the kids have no table manners and throw themselves around the house, and while Richard devotes every moment to his research, he expects Mayumi to cook, clean and run the house without any help.

Meanwhile on a quiet street in Connecticut, the Martel family -- wife Karen (43), husband Jay (50) and their two kids, Max (11) and Dean (10) -- live a life of calm and safety. Dad is so committed to safety that he runs a child-proofing business devoted to identifying dangers and risks and making sure kids stay out of harm's way. With all the precautions taken to keep them safe, Max and Dean seem to be afraid of everything...&quot;you can fall down the stairs, get cancer from the microwave, get tapeworms from sushi, and the lava lamp could explode...&quot; The Martels conduct safety fire drills, make sure the kids wear protective gear on their bikes and pogo-sticks and never let the boys out of their sight. The atmosphere in the house is calm and serene, and Karen and Jay are equal partners.

In the first week, Karen Martel moves to Colorado and has to overcome her fears as she becomes a storm-chaser. She is shocked as the Heene kids jump off banisters and run wild, and appalled by Richard's attitude to women. Meanwhile at the Martels', Mayumi Heene sees safety gates everywhere and wonders how the family have fun. She asks the kids about their anxieties and confronts Jay about the climate of fear in his house.

In the second week of the swap when the wives change the rules and turn the tables, Karen tries to bring order to the Heenes' chaos, with Richard fighting her rules every step of the way, and the Martels have hold on tight as Mayumi shouts &quot;Storm Approaching! Storm Approaching!&quot; At the end of two weeks, will Karen Martel bring peace and order to the chaotic Heene household? And can Mayumi free the Martel kids from fear?

Re: Boy Trapped in Runaway Balloon!

[Dr.Dudd]

Re: Boy Trapped in Runaway Balloon!

Scientist.... yes.
Mad scientist?? No.
He seem to be a careless scientist.
since the didn;'t take the curiosity of a 6 year old boy who will mimic his father, normal behavior.

there is no such thing.
If you area real scientist you hav etoi be a little insane, but nort specially genious.<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: SistaCtry</div><div class="ubbcode-body">it look like his father is a mad scientist....half way between being a genius and being insane~~

Re: Boy Trapped in Runaway Balloon!

The boy's family had been building a helium-balloon aircraft that was kept tethered in the backyard of their home. The aircraft, which resembled a flying saucer, was approximately 20 feet by 5 feet.

On Thursday morning, Falcon was playing outside with one of his two older brothers when <span style="font-weight: bold">the older boy saw the younger one go into a box or basket at the bottom of the balloon, said Cathy Davis of the Larimer County Sheriff's Department.

The craft somehow became untethered and the balloon took off.</span>It was airborne for more than two hours and glided through two countries.

&quot;This balloon was never meant to actually carry anybody. It was just a family project they were working on,&quot; a Fort Collins police spokesperson told reporters.



I the boy never took off the with balloon and is in fact hiding.
