America was riveted by the unfolding folk-tale of the balloon boy in October 2009. Young Falcon Heene was thought to have been carried away on board a helium balloon fashioned like a spacecraft. The story of the missing boy panicked an entire nation. In pursuit of the floating balloon, unabated media mania erupted. Americans spent several hours that day watching a drifting and sagging balloon, on its journey across Colorado. After the balloon came back to Earth, and the missing boy was found hiding in his attic, America let out a huge sigh of relief. It’s a story that will live on for some time.
