Who really cares!?
Did it for fame
DUDE, THEY DIDN'T EVEN NAME INTERNET HISTORIAN, THEY JUST CALLED HIM HEENE'S WEBSITE. HARD FAIL.
I think this was definitely staged.
The whole thing turned out to be a hoax? Great, now I have no respect for anyone at this news station.
they look like crackheads
Wow, what absolutely worthless reporters.
Classic delusional narcissist.
4:35 They are not his videos, they are Internet Historians. You obviously did not look anything up, otherwise you would know who that is and that the video was made without any relation to Richard. It is just a youtuber who wants to make videos about curious things that happened in a funny manner. When he did the video on this, he thought it would originally be a short video making a little fun about a stupid hoax but as he dug up the reports, it showed that no one is giving Richards story a fair chance. So he dug deeper and reported everything he found.
It is really sad that youtuber who make stupid funny videos is more thorough in their research than you guys.
Do some research and watch what really happened. It will change your mind about this being a hoax. The media hid the truth as much back then as they do now.
Fake news
And OJ wasn't a murderer and the Mid-East really had weapons of mass destruction and 9/11 was an inside job…
YouTuber did a better research than the journalists
It wasn't a hoax… If you get your information from the mainstream media… Then you really aren't looking into it…
A random dude in the internet did a better job covering this story than a company who claims to cover "unbias" news…
he doesn’t need to admit it. So obvious he is a liar. It’s for the show.
It was a hoax all along. The Colorado Governor just pardoned the family
Mr Heene served a month in jail and Mrs Heene was jailed for 20 days for filing a false report. They were also ordered to pay $36,000. Before I would have pardoned them, this dude would have had to admit on national TV that he is a liar. He needs a spanking, the old man. Using his kids to get a damn reality tv show.
Lol we don't want to associate with that but here we are lol…
I just watched Notorious on Reelz tv, boy, that Dad is a NUT JOB! It was a hoax! The father us still chasing a dead dream. His wacky inventions are just that!
“We really don’t want to associate ourselves with that.” YET, the horrible song and video are named “balloon boy”….riding that foolishness as far as they can go.
Sicko!
Maybe if they followed the Martel safety precaution. Richard should have listened to Karen
Never believe in the media, they make what they want to make! Not the reality people needs to hear. C'mon, they can literally make a story about a rock sitting in the ground for 5000 years and still make it sound dramatic.
He was innocent. The cops were the ones who broke the law and its been proven
