"Nightcrawler" Creatures Footage
Was bored and could not sleep the other night so the only thing interesting on was the Syfy show Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files (show with various experts in their fields who investigate supposedly real footage found on the internet). The team tried various methods from in re-creating the video from dressing a little kid up, using puppets, and even video editing and they could not re-create these things. They even went to the woods nearby to see if it was plausible such things exist and that is where things started to go "funky". Equipment going out for no reason, cameras with fresh batteries loosing power, remote cameras being "pushed" over. The crew on site started to really get creaped out and left. They even did a voice analysis of the house owner and it showed he was feaked out by what he saw. Even I could tell that by the live interview.
They did not say these were aliens, all they did say whatever was filmed might be real (whatever they are).
So if you live in the Fresno area and wake up one morning with a anal probe, you'll know who to blame :P
By the way, I have no clue why people must always put music to any kinda of video. Urgh.
Odd...
Wish the video wasn't so fuzzy...ca mon people! Get with HD already!
Someone made the comment
on Youtube "It is the night of living pants!"
That might make sense, the pants of the world had enough and are gathering to take over the world :)
Rules of thumb:
1. If the crew of a TV show based around showing spooky, paranormal events has something spooky and paranormal happen to them while they're investigating, they're making it up.
2. If the crew of a TV show based around showing spooky, paranormal events opines that there's no way an event or piece of footage could be faked, it was faked.
3. Don't believe anything you see on reality television.
4. See 3.
Like You Said
it is reality TV (I rarely watch TV as it is) so I do take it with a grain of salt, on that note though I did watch a few of the episodes that night and they did de-bunk more than they found plausible.
Do I believe this is real, I have no idea. All I know is what I saw.
What I do know it is creepy and it does creep me out everytime I watch it :)
Of course.
They've got to debunk stuff, if they say everything's plausible they'll have absolutely no credibility. By debunking some obvious fakes, they can gin up others into something really spooky.
With the poor quality of the video, that could be anything. My first guess was somebody under a sheet, but then I saw descriptions that it was only a couple of feet tall. So some kind of remote-controlled toy or maybe a puppet, video author's comments about his expert analysis skills notwithstanding.
I'll just say this - if they had something really unexplainable, they wouldn't have to gussy it up with fake equipment malfunctions and spooky events while shooting, and speaking as someone who has actually worked on one of these "paranormal investigation" shows, equipment malfunctions and spooky events while shooting are ALWAYS fake. At best they'll take something easily explainable ("Oh yeah, that was when the leaf blew across the infrared camera and it looked weird.") and spin it ("I honestly couldn't tell you what that object was that flew across the camera so fast, must have been a ghost!") so it sounds better.
Paranormal reality shows are all well and good, just don't go buying into the hype. :)
Ghost Car
Ok here is one of the episodes in which they investigate, in which a car a cop is chasing somehow goes through a fence.
See for yourself how they handle it.
LoL
I can't remember if it's video 3 or 4, but just shortly after 1:45, when the guy is talking about their balloon experiment, he's standing in front of the SUV. If you look in the upper right corner of your screen you'll screen a green and red light, prolly them messing around with the lasers again, kinda funny.
On a side note, I never knew you could do that with lasers, but I'm still curious as to what they caught at the end on IR.
