OK not so much, but it could have fooled alot of people. I hadnt seen any reports of flying people in NYC, but if there had been, here is the
explanation:
What looked to be three people were spotted flying around the skies of lower Manhattan last Friday, causing a lot of double-takes and dropped jaws
from onlookers. But while it appeared to be a sight straight out of a comic book, it was actually a clever bit of viral marketing for this week's
upcoming film "Chronicle." Those aren't people in the air, but some very intricately designed radio-controlled airplanes. Watch the video of
their flight, and keep reading to learn how it was done.
Flying People
Its actually pretty cool looking and to get a close up view of the rc planes and how they were constructed is also worth the watch.
I can imagine if I had seen this things flying, the lat thing nI would have thought of was a viral marketing ploy for a movie, but that's exactly
what this was.
Kinda makes you think what else that has been spotted in the skies has such a mundane explanation.
