I would love to see what kind of swatter you would use to take down and prove one of these rods to actually be an insect.  If you can bring one down in action and show real proof that a rod is an insect then I will believe .

They ARE insects--perfectly ordinary insects. As you correctly observe, they are a videographic artifact based on the frame capture rate of the videocam versus the wingbeat frequency of the insects. Essentially what you see is several wingbeat cycles of the insect on each frame of the video, creating the illusion of a "rod" with bulges along its length. The blurred body of the insect as it moves forward forms the "rod," and the oscillation of the wings up and down form the bulges. Anyone with a video camera can duplicate the effect, if you shoot enough footage of flying insects from the right distance.

Makes sense. similar idea when a car hits a certain speed, the wheels appear to be turning towards the opposite direction.

bird .. they can dart really fast

[The Silver Thong]

Yup have to go with a bird and it's speed, well thats all relative to how close to the camera it was. I see nothing special in the vid sorry.

[Twin Peaks]

Its clearly not a bird. Maybe if i had more experiencewith video footage maybe. But its not a bird. Maybe some other kind of something like a lense anomoly.
