cant wait to see the video!

This guy is going to show a fake video for the sake of publicity and is going to regulate any serious UFO researchers back to the tin foil crowd.

I almost never post on anything alien related because while I am open to the possibility of visitation I, like a large portion of the public, am extremely skeptical of the evidence that is usually presented as proof. Thus I usually prefer to sit on the sidelines and watch the debate.

However, with that said, I'd like to address this specific issue as I think there is something that Mr. Peckman and a lot of others in the UFO field are forgetting...

It is my view that video footage alone, no matter how amazing or authentic looking, will never be accepted as proof positive of extra terrestrial life. In this case specifically, it will almost certainly not be accepted as proof by a skeptical governmental entity that is more concerned with how Mr. Peckman's proposal is going to affect their bottom line than disclosure.

The fact is for non-believers and the undecided, in this day and age of truly life like CGI and animatronics, video footage is simply not reliable enough to convince one to shift their world view so radically.

The only way I can foresee video footage ever being seriously considered evidence and possibly as proof, would be if there were either a large number of first hand eyewitnesses to the event, a substantial amount of some form of physical evidence that corroborates events shown in the video, or some form of physical evidence that is conclusively not terrestrial in origin. And even in cases such as those it may not be enough. Short of that, the scientific community and thereby the general public will simply say that any given footage is intriguing however no real conclusions can be made from it.

I'm sorry but I'm afraid for myself and a lot of other people like me, no matter how much we'd like to believe, a few seconds of an extra terrestrial looking figure shot at night, just isn't going to be convincing enough.

Just my 2 cents,

man...
I really hope this isnt another..
HEY.. I HAVE SOME GREAT EVIDENE...
3 weeks later.. oh.. im sorry .. but my source changed
his mind.... the tape got stolen...
MiB came and took it.. blah blah blah...

I really hope this is for realz..

scam so you buy the DVD

Looking forward to viewing the video; will reserve judgement until then. Sounds exciting! Do we dare hope it's authenticated and free of problems? You bet! Will be travelling on Friday..... dangitall.

One question though.... "through the window".... I wonder how long the vid is running beofre the "alien" appears. hmmmmmm. What would cause him to video out the window with IR at that moment.

We'll see ...... sounds promising

When I saw this my first thought was that it is a big joke. It probably will end up being a big joke after everything is said and done. Even if it is true it will be pushed aside. In reading the Fox link the statement you can clearly see their bias when they mention the high school students wearing tinfoil hats. In other words, this guy is a 'quack'.

You know what? I say let people be who they are without giving them societal labels. He is probably a brilliant man that truly believes what he is saying. Who is to say that it isn't true? Unless proven a fraud 'legitimately' then we should give him the benefit of the doubt.

I just fear he is full of BS.

We will see tomorrow.

Divorced. No children. Lives with his parents.

In the basement maybe?

I think that says it all!

IMO this one looks to be a big circus and unfortunately he's got the city involved as well. Just based on this guy's history I hope you all are not getting your hopes to high. I have a feeling there's going to be quite a lot of disappointment.

I just started to read this thread when Fox came on with Denver man has proof of Alien and is going to show it. The segment is to be on this hour I believe (10:.00 a.m. EST)

Now I'll go back to pg.1 when I hear I'll post.

edit to add: Fox just said today it is supposed to be shown and I think here it said the 30th tomorrow so I don't know which one. I have no doubt if Fox gets there hands on it they will broadcast it a.s.a.p.

The general feeling here in Denver is that this guy is trying to scam people. He wanted a commision started that would pay him around 80,000 dollars a year for doing nothing but talking to his buddy aliens. The radio guys have really torn his history apart and brought foward all sorts of stuff about this guy. Everything from multiple failed predictions based on ET info to having a history as a special effects wizard. Nobody in Denver takes this joker seriously.

Ah i cant wait for this vid, if its true this will truely be a great moment for us guys.

I just hope this guy improves as his publicity game is MAD WEAK.

"No one will be allowed to film the segment with the extraterrestrial because there is an agreement in place limiting that kind of exposure during negotiations for the documentary,"

Ha So we have to buy the DVD or wait at his discretion. Riiiight...

After browsing over his website, I think it's quite clear this guy is just DESPERATE to have some kind of contact with aliens, some kind of involvement with their grand plan of Earth

Hoax.

Amazing!!
Even before we have seen his "evidence", we as open minded individuals have managed to cut this man to ribbons. As for radio station DJs making him out to be a fraud.. well, DJs do nothing but side with the masses. If they did not then they would fail to keep ratings high and therefor lose their jobs!

That said. he is probably mental!! Lol

Lets wait and see for ourselves. DJs suck.

eveybody should google Ray Santilli
.

he fooled the world for 11 years.

and when i read this article i cant stop smelling Ray Santilli's odour [-bullcrap-]

Why wait until tomorrow? To clean up the edits I guess

Interesting story nontheless....

How about we reserve judgement until after we have seen the video? Crissakes nobody has even seen it yet and yet so many are already crying hoax. That just does as much to damage your reputation as being less than objective as it does to theirs IF it turns out to be fake. So get off it until you see the evidence.

See... it's always something "popping up" briefly. For a CG expert (or puppeteer) this is easy. You don't need to show too much information. You can make the little you do show look amazing. It had better be a long shot and not just some "OH LOOK OMG THERE IT IS!!!" Then it's gone after 3 seconds with TONS of room for speculation on it's authenticity. My advice: Don't release it unless you're 150% it's real. Otherwise, it's just damaging.
