America was riveted by the unfolding folk-tale of the balloon boy in
October 2009.
Young Falcon Heene was thought to have been carried away on board a helium
balloon fashioned like a spacecraft. The story of the missing boy panicked
an entire nation. In pursuit of the floating balloon, unabated media mania
erupted. Americans spent several hours that day watching a drifting and
sagging balloon, on its journey across Colorado. After the balloon came
back to Earth, and the missing boy was found hiding in his attic, America
let out a huge sigh of relief. It's a story that will live on for some
time.
