That is pretty freaky. If true.

why is it whenever somebody films something wierd, or takes a photograph of something strange, it always has to be poor quality or blurred??! it looks like a little bug on the screen

I never want to be one to pour cold water on anything*, but the website from which that comes doesn't exactly inspire confidence in its objectivity and non-sensationalness...






*well ok, i do

the pictures look like a skydiver... or a guy with a jet pack.

It doesn't look like a bug, insect or a bird, just looking at the size of the object and the height it appears to be at. On zooming it appears to be something like a human form on an air scooter or something.
The video doesn't appear to be fake, strange, very strange....

To me it look like somebody snowboarding or skiing ! I think it's possible to make somebody smaller and then to had the picture on an other movie !
Look at it in slow motion. It look like the guy is on a board !

Very good thinking, but I don't think it's a skydiver considering that the figure appears to be going upwards towards the sky and how low it appears to be from the ground, unless the guy's chute didn't work if you consider that the video is a rewinded one.

More pictures from different sightings here.

It's Professor Frink.

Looks like the guy is attached to a rope. Also when it zooms out there appears to be a flag pole or something very close by - which could be the source of the rope. With something this blurry a rope could easily be missed. The video would also be slowed down to make it appear stranger.

Common sense tells me that people can't fly, or for that matter - entities without wings/jets cant fly. It's got to be suspended by a rope.

xD thanks for the link.
on the second to last photo, im guessing that its harry potter and hedwig accidently dropped him.

the last photo looks like a guy sitting on a bike. or a giant dragonfly. and AGAIN I say, why does the giant dragonfly have glowing red eyes... that makes no sense.

maybe the skydiver is on a trampaline?

I was thinking the red dot was part of a jet-pack.

OK I have no doubt this is a real video clip, it's just not anything untoward. Now, the article says that the object was flying a few feet over a house? well, if you take into account the amount of zoom that is used (hence the shaky camera) it says to me that object is a lot further away than is suggested. Also, if you freeze-frame it, especially right at the start of the clip, you can see 'tail fins' and it looks remarkably like a blimp........

Some of those pictures from that latest link are really weird.

Assuming that they aren't fake then...what the hell are they!?

I don't know.

I'm going with the blimp suggestion here. I was driving to downtown Chicago a couple of weeks ago when I saw something hovering abouve the city skyline, it scared the poop outta me, then I realised it was a blimp that was advertising something for the White Sox game that was going on.

But the blimp has legs...

I think its a skydiver to, after all human cant why.. or can they....

Hoagy, the things in these pictures, especially the bottom one (I think), have what seems to be legs!

its a skydiver on a trampaline I tell you!! >_<

Yeah, those stills look pretty weird, I was talking about the initial video link that was in the thread starter. I dunno, pinatas? novelty helium balloons?

Yeah well that website is right up there in my book with Aaron Donahue's site
I would have to agree with you.......

Well...maybe. I am still not convinced though. Especially with that last set of pictures.

Dang, you know what the most frustrating thing about this is... We may never know what it was. Also, one of the pics shows a second "thing" with the main object. It dose look like it has wings as the artical said, but what would cause this thing to get that close to it. From what I know birds still fly away when they see a human, and let alone stay clear from anything other than another bird when in the air.

OMG WHAT'S THAT! HURRY GET YOUR VIDEO CAMERA AND TAPE IT! MAKE SURE YOU SHAKE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE!

I think that may be what people think when they catch something strange on video.

the guy filming needs some muscle relaxants. they could be experimental jet packs?

he was shaking because he was scared.
I mean, wouldnt you be scared if your grandad started floating at the family dinner. and then decided to sit on a giant dragonfly, and then pretend to be a skydiver on a trampaline?

I sure would be.

oh, if your thinking those were wings, their just pretend wings. grandad thinks its always halloween now.


EDIT

I forgot to use at least one smiley >_<

posts just aren't the same without them.

???????????????????? lol

I dont think he was shaking because he was scared really. He zooms in with his camera, and quite possibly zoomed to the max capacity. Anyone who has a video camera will know that even someone with the steadiest hand will shake when zoomed out to that extent.

Im maybe be understanding the webpage wrong but,



The say they started filming when it was only a few feet above the Roof. I take that as the actual position of the object because .... before they say



and also



Now if you look at the last few frames of the video you can see the the size of the house, and how big a human would actually be if as they said "floating just a few feet above the front building's roof ".

Going by that the object looks about 100 times to small to be human size and you would be clearly able to see the object without the need to zoom in at all

I agree with Hoagy, Novelty balloons.

it's majin Buu.

it looks like a man who has just jumped out of a plane to me.. Then with the help of photoshop you have a weird ufo picture.

I agree.

I don't think it looks anything like a bug on the screen. And I'm not really sure I would pass it off as a balloon either. Regardless as to what it is, if I saw something like this floating above anywhere in my neighborhood I do believe I'de be calling in the patrol to shoot the thing down before something terrible had a chance of happening.

why would skydivers fall horizontal from the sky? i've seen videos of skydivers and they're always leaning headfirst on their stomach.
it could be government testing, u know how sneaky those guys are.

***oops. double post

You notice all the folks filming these things, if you read the articles, are friends of each other? Coincidence?

To the people who said "its a bird..its fake, "etc, why dont you take a look at the video?
Its just amazing footage.
Really weird things are going on in Mexico.

I know. And I want one.

I am not saying that they are anything paranormal, but I don't see how you can say that the following images are of novelty balloons...
And, they are all in the same area.

I dont think they are governmental experiment things. They wouldnt use them so close to the public, would they? They cant be that stupid! If they were humans with jet packs they would look more human. The "human" shapes just look too weird and some of them look rather fat. The jet pack would just stay on the ground if they were overweight. Hehe.

Mr. Ed, Im guessing you arent aware of what Ballons they are talking about. I have seen hot air balloons shaped like a bird, santa claus, a crocodile, and even a pokemon. The red light in the last pic you posted is most likely the fire producing hot air to keep it airborne.



Omg, t3h c4ke inv4d3rs 4re c0ming!

I am aware, I just can't see any strings, fire, or baskets.

I watched like 3 seconds of the video...

It looks like a damn fly on a window or something to me...

*shrugs*

Well I can see fire (Atleast in the last pic you posted), I would expect they could cover the basket with some material to hide it, make it look more real. Or maybe even edit it out.

I dunno, the one with the purple light looks like one of those fan things that scuba divers use. There is apparently a hose or something coming off the side of it.

Is there a novelty baloon factory in the area? Maybe this is product testing or something.

Maybe they're smuggling immigrants over the border

>_>

Nah, sorry. Probably just a baloon.

Why must a UFO-(or whatever) footage always be shaky and/or grainy...?

Because they are high in the sky and very far away and the human hand is not completely steady.

Pretty obvious really.
