Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, News, Video,
UPDATE: In an interview with CNN, Falcon Heene apparently claims to have pulled the stunt for a show.
UPDATE: Falcon Heene has been found safe. He had been hiding in an attic at his family’s home.
The missing child at the center of today’s wild balloon drama was no stranger to reality television.
Over the past year, 6-year-old Falcon Heene and his family have been the subject of two episodes of Wife Swap. The Colorado-based storm chasers first appeared on the show on October 3, 2008 and were then chosen as fan favorites for the program’s 100th episode on March 13, 2009. The Heene boys were also featured in a number of YouTube videos. (You can view one of those after the jump.)
