Hours after he worried America sick into thinking he was in a runaway balloon flying over Colorado, while all the time he was just hiding in the attic, 6-year-old Falcon Henne, aka “Balloon Boy”, told Wolf Blitzer “We did this for the show.”

In this scene, Falcon admits that he heard his parents calling him, but declined to come out of the garage.

At 0:40, he mutters, “We did this for the show.”

This leads father Richard to try and explain what he just said. “Whenever we tell him things like, it’s a bad thing to do, he does go and hide,” he says.

Here is more of the interview. This is excruciating to watch.

When CNN talking head Don Lemon asked whether the warm reception Obama received upon his arrival in Africa was unprecedented, Nkepile Mabuse caught him quite off guard with her response.

Priceless!

DON LEMON, ANCHOR CNN NEWSROOM: Nkepile, I was watching you yesterday on the “Situation Room” with Wolf Blitzer when President Obama was arriving, and they were doing the dancing, and all of the people who were running up to him. For a western leader, I know when presidents come over there, they are usually warmly received. But for a western leader, have you ever seen anything like this? Is this unprecedented?

NKEPILE MABUSE, CORRESPONDENT: It’s not unprecedented. When President Bush was here, you will remember, in February, there were people who were drumming, there were dances, and President Bush joined some of them. So, it’s not unprecedented. This is a truly African welcome that is given to anybody whether they are from Africa or anywhere else in the world, Don.

LEMON: So, they welcome everyone. It doesn’t matter. That’s just part of how the people do it, right?

MABUSE: Indeed, Don.
