Falcon Heene
Culture Buzz A 6-year-old from Fort Collins, Colorado climbed into his dad's homemade helium balloon and accidentally took off. The balloon has since landed but no one was inside, suggesting Falcon may have fallen during the flight. Falcon's dad Richard Heene was apparently with him before the balloon escaped. He and his brothers are also in some sort of boy band (or at least filmed a music video for Wife Swap.)
