Seriously?
The show is bogus like ALL UFO shows. I am having a VERY hard time understanding what the problem is here..
1. They are lights.
No one is going to debate whether or not these are lights. That part of the discussion is over.
2. They MAY be in formation.
I don't see anything from the --------SECONDS------- of video and -------ONE-------- eye witness that has been shown to indicate that it is in
formation for any longer than the briefest of moments. Eye witnesses are unreliable anyway as pointed out in a rather famous example.
A classroom was asked to view a video and tell the professor how many people touched a ball that was being passed around. When the video was over and
the students answered correctly, the professor asked the students if they noticed anything unusual about the video. A VERY loew percentage of
individuals ever pick up on the fact that a man in a gorilla suit walks through the crowd of people.
This alone makes me question the validity of eye witnesses right of the bat. Not because I think anyone is lying, but because people are rarely
sure of anything they are seeing.
3. There was an air show that day. Yes yes, I know, "Airplanes don't fly like that." We have airplanes that can do amazing things. We even have
hovering airplanes. I will just mention the Harrier as being one of them, even though it's hovering capabilities are limited to about 90-120 seconds
tops (Which I might add is longer than any of these clips are).
4. The multitude of witnesses NOT interviewed by the show. I know I said they aren't reliable, but that doesn't mean you cover up the ones that
stray from the story you want to portray.
5. The fact that only 1 tape was analyzed when there were multiple tapes. There is no way to tell anything on that tape (in fairness fromwhat I saw of
it).
a) It is a single point of perspective.
b) It hasn't any reference points (except the chopper that flew through it. Ever think THAT might be why he doesn't want to talk about it? He
may have been flying through a no-fly zone during an airshow stunt. I am not assuming anything, just laying out another point.)
c) It is low quality film. (Again, in fairness, it could merely be the compression, but I sure can't make out ANYTHING save for the fact it's
some lights).
This show is garbage. They are presenting this as unexplainable and they IGNORED the fact that there was an airshow that day. That along with the
conclusions that have been jumped to make me scream at the sky because I know that it will make MORE people believe in something that is nothing more
than swamp gas refracted of Venus.
I can't even respect anyone that would think this is evidence of an alien presence because it damages your credibility as a rational and free
thinking individual to the point that it is a wonder you can even turn on a computer let alone post on a message board.
