Anyone else see the interview with the father on the news this morning? I don't know if he is a poor actor or if he was high, but something wasn't right.

After learning more about the 'family' I'd vote 'SCAM' too.

Yeah, I would say scam as well. I didn't see it, but I heard that a family member video taped the balloon lifting off the ground. The whole thing sounds strange. If it was a hoax and they can prove it, someone is gonna be in trouble.

It was a hoax. I saw the video of the lift-off.

After watching this 'family' on Wife Swap, it was pretty obvious the parents are nut cases. BUT charging them with a felony, I dunno.
