Ballon Boy's Dad is Scared

Balloon Boy hoax parents Richard and Mayumi Heene leave district court after pleading guilty to charges stemming from the incident at the Larimer County Justice Center in Fort Collins, Colorado on November 13, 2009.

See how Richard is raising his checks, this is a protective facial expression. It is something we unconsciously do to protect our eyes. Likely this is one of those old gestures that even cave men did when faced with possible danger of being attacked. While he likely is about to be attacked by the media without better stories to cover, you will see this at times when a physical assault is not even possible in your everyday lives if you are on the lookout for it. The grimace is unmistakable.◦
