"Baloon Boy" tells Larry King "We did this for a show."

[totalnoob]

During the interview, the parents go through their little rehearsed questions with their son, asking him "Why didn't you come out when we called you? Kid says "Um..You guys said that we were doing this for a show."

30 second mark.

OWNED!

The dad had no idea what to say.. I guess being on 'Wife Swap' twice wasn't enough for the attention whore parents. Hopefully they get prosecuted for this.

he probably meant the larry king show, giving a 6 year old the benefit of the doubt

Q: Why didn't you come out when we called you?

A: You said we were doing it for a show.

Orly?

The parents need to be punched in the face repeatedly for naming their son "Falcon".

I laughed out loud when I heard the kid say that. I love watching something like this simply fall apart in such a spectacular manner.

Wow, that was really... awkward. You know that feeling you get when you're watching something, and you feel almost too embarrassed to watch it and you want to cover your eyes and your ears? Ughf!

Common body language also tells the tale. Listen to the mom's voice rise in panic at :26 when the kid says "YES", he did hear them yelling for him. Her fingers also start clenching nervously around her knee at that point. Clearly he was supposed to say "No" to the question..but forgot the entire script and owned his parents in the next sentence. :laugh:

WTF was the Dad talking about after that? "Ummm when we go to the store he wants to buy candy, then he falls behind....umm.....he's always doing stuff like that....ummm..." WTF?!?

At 44 seconds it sounds like someone farted. Is mom or dad a little bit nervous about this hoax?

Oh wow, that's a bit too much to watch with a straight face, what horrible parents if they did in fact put their kids up to this!
