orbs are dust particles and when they are near the camera they appear fuzzy and luminous because of the flash

you can try it anytime by hitting your bed a few times to send dust flying in the air and taking pics

I've never seen any orbs flying around either, so I'd say I'm very skeptical of them at this point.

i for one believe -some- orbs are real paranormal things. the vast majority are dust, yes this i agree with, but as with all ufo photos and video, there is truth hidden behind the error.

Althugh I would love to say that I agree, part of me holds back a bit on passing judgement.

Orbs and Rods, could very well be some simple lifeforms that live at the edge of our perception, not aliens, not monsters, but simple organisms. Its the new technology and spreading of cameras and videos etc, that we are only now noticing they exist...

Thats just my opinion to it though, I certinaly don't follow the BS about them being aliens from another dimension.

It's rather foolish to say that orbs do not exist. In most cases, cameras catch orbs because of the reasons that you stated. There are a handful, however, that are not so easily explained. For years, people have reportedly witnessed orbs with their naked eye. I believe orbs are real.

For IMMORTAL, you can run a search and view actual video footage of moving orbs.

ive looked at hundreds of pictures and i will agree that 99% of 'orbs" captured have a reasonable explanation i have also seen a few that cant be explained....as for what they are i believe they are a type of energy signature

I've always thought they were just that...dust particles, etc.

Orbs are ball lightning a rare but documented weather event. If one hits you i think you die instantly.

I let them touch me.. because most of the time it is dust

Theres probaly a bunch of natural happenings that are taken for orbs & rods. If I see an orb durring a thunderstorm im running away from that thing. I heard they can go right through windows without loosing energy.

rock on sabby...i agree wholeheartedly, i try to tie in physics and science and most people in this community act like im an idiot

I heard that most orb phenomon can be explained by weather balloons or flocks of birds,.,,

I saw on a discovery channel special that Saul of Tarsus's conversion into Paul could have been caused by ball lightning/earthquake lights. They said he could have touched one, and it caused a hallucination.

I read that he probably suffered a right temporal lobe seizure thus causing a hallucination
