12 years ago a dude uploaded these 3 videos supposedly showing a real flying saucer and aliens. While they have had filters and other bs added, no one has yet proven that the underlying video is fake. No one is able to replicate anything like it. Even with up to 30k legitimately offered for anyone who could prove or disprove the authenticity.

When you first look at the videos you most likely initially say “Well that’s obviously a hoax.” But how exactly? That’s when it gets complicated. I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s some strange mixture of both real and fake video. That alone makes it very interesting to me.

This might make a cool topic or subtopic for Flack and his wife’s show!

Hey Jizaboz, what do you think about the US Air Force videos?

[Ice Cream Jonsey]

Those are obviously fake. Literally any movie made in the last 20 years employed artists capable of creating those images.

As Jiz suggested, I initially thought "well, that's obviously a hoax." Then I continued to think that. I am also thinking that now, and will continue to do so in the future.

[AArdvark]

All hoax all the time.

Why does there need to be some kind of cover-up regarding aliens?

If they did exist on our planet they would have had a guest spot on Letterman by now

Hey Jizaboz, what do you think about the US Air Force videos?

Those were pretty interesting! Though honestly the recent one of the empire strikes back looking drone floating over an area in Iraq was even more so. Wtf even is that thing?!

Back on the Bob thing I just find it odd that no one ever claimed with proof that they created it considering how well done it is. Much like the “Apollo 17” hoax were we had found some huge ship on the moon and found an alien woman in an abandoned lander lol. The guy that created that one was quick to claim it as it was a portfolio builder of sorts for him. He had the props laying around where he lived and everything.

Here's my problem, not with that video, but with every video:



If you've not seen it, this is the Haiti UFO video that made the rounds several years ago. Most people assumed it was from a movie, but nobody could figure out what movie it was. It's a really, really good video... and the entire thing is CG. if you pause it toward the end and look at the palm trees you can see that they're identical. The guy who made it did it on his MacBook with off the shelf software. We're not talking about ILM or some big special effects house here, we're talking about some dude at his kitchen table playing around on his laptop. The Skinny Bob stuff is interesting and I like watching stuff like that but I can't buy into any of it.

Thanks, Flack! I have seen this one! Obvious student CGI to the point where I dunno if I'd even want to take credit for that one lol. And yes, like you I'm not exactly stamping my I BELIEVE card here. However, when you compare that footage to this and say the "Alien Autopsy" VHS from back in the day, there's just something off about these Bob films. For instance, that area they are supposedly flying over. That's obviously a real place but because of the date it was taken and other factors.. no one can determine exactly it was. I gather you have watched TONS of UFO vids like I have, but I wanted to bring this one up because something just doesn't feel right to me with it. I think either A: There is real footage of a non-earth biological entity here spliced with BS to mask something else that had leaked or B: There is a physical special effect somehow performed 12 years or so ago to make the footage of the entities themselves that has yet to have been shown in any episode of X-Files or movie I have ever seen. It's a bit creepy and unsettling to me!

I now want to believe it's just children in VERY elaborate costume... hahaha

[pinback]

Other than the above-ground shots, this is entirely CG. Every video is fake:

[AArdvark]

Backrooms creeping me out!

The quality of that video ( and others like it) means there will never be any real footage. And even if there is we won't believe it.

[Flack]

The other problem with those Skinny Bob videos is the same problem Bob Lazar and Ed Walters (the Gulf Breeze guy) and that's once people find errors and/or edits, and that's that your credit is shot. (Well, that and you claim to see UFOs.) Bob Lazar made up a bunch of his credentials and now he's a liar. Ed Walters tiij a bunch of UFO pictures and then later someone found a model of the UFO in his attic and he said "oh yeah I made one to look just like the pictures!" Dumb. If you wait long enough, all the stories eventually fall apart. I will always admire Betty and Barney Hill for sticking to their guns. They either really got abducted or at least thought they did.

Conversation from last night:

Me: You know the best way to tell alien footage is fake?
My dad: Because it's footage of an alien?

[AArdvark]

Huh, nailed it!

That SNL clip was pretty funny!

[pinback]

There was a second one that was virtually identical in format, with just the specifics of the stories changed. At that point you realize the theme of these sketches was not "one woman has significantly worse experience with aliens than the others", but instead "Kate McKinnon gets Ryan Gosling to break."

In the second one, they put Gosling right next to her, just to make it that more impossible for him to keep it together.

Also, new Kane Pixels just dropped!

Oh definitely! They went through something bizarre, that is for sure.
