I'm hoping that science teachers everywhere will take the opportunity tomorrow to teach a little bit of physics to their students.

"Okay, children. How big would a condom have to be to fit on that balloon?"

The give and take here matched DU (without the cussing).

Anyone with half a brain could have determined that the kid wasn't in the balloon after 10 seconds of video.

Using that math, anyone with a quarter of a brain could've determined that the kid wasn't in the balloon in 5 seconds.

Anyone with less than a quarter of a brain would still be the smartest person on DU.

It was a hoax. The problem is that most people had no idea how big the balloon was. If they had known it was so small, more people would have been yelling BS.

The MSM was ready to give them the benefit of the doubt even after the boy said “we did it for the show”. Which just shows how stupid the media is.

Very nice as usual with the song, but given the involvement of a passenger balloon I would’ve thought it’d be done by the Von Trapdoor Family singers...

...somehow the Heene's will make money from this hoax.

How? By selling the carbon credits contained within the balloon?

They were all upset that they didn't get to drool in front of the TV watching another 0bama speech. Must be a conspiracy by Fox and the rest of the news networks to keep people from getting their daily indoctrination fix. They might slip out of the trance if the don't hear their master's voice.

Math and physics told me (and many others) that this was BS from the get-go.

And I can prove it usually simple geometric logic. We'll measure the strawberrys now and compare that to the amount....

knocking off the President of the USA from live coverage to show what amounts to one of the biggest farces of the decade

If it go the O's countenance off the tube for awhile, I'd argue for leniency...
