This was actually on a tv show last Thursday called Fact or Faked: Paronormal Files on the Syfy channel, it was cool seeing them trying to prove it was a fake. Which I don't think they ever could really say true or fake.
They tried several didn't things they thought might have made this video and came up with nothing. One was maybe a kid was playing a joke so they had a very young kid I think 5 or 6 come in and walk from the gate past the camera like the film. The kid couldn't walk a straight line like in the film so they said NOPE on that one. Also the image is very thin like a pole and the kid wasn't.
Next they thought maybe someone put up a cloths line and pulled something across the screen and than fixed the video so you didn't see the lines. They tried that and what they pulled looked just like the image however it swayed back and forth to much. In the video the image walks very straight and doesn't sway. So they tried hooking it up to a pole and having someone walk beside it so there was less swaying and that didn't work either.
3rd they thought maybe it was a robot so they built a robot and it ended up being to wide and didn't look like the image. So they gave up and went and looked in the pond behind the guys house to see if they could find something and the equipment they had started acting funny and going off and on. They never did say what it was, could have been or nothing so it is still a mystery.
