Shouldthisexist Posted October 19, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Hi all its been a while since I have been on here it's a pleasure to be back! Now down to business. A series of lights can be seen above a hotel flashing or more like pulsing in no specified order. At first i thought it might be a single piece, but now thinking its separate objects. This happened recently and the location is only about 5-10mins away so I know it pretty intimately and fairly certain it wasn't flares. I was curious to see if maybe anyone had any ideas as to what it maybe. I read about how similar it looks to led balloons and I have to agree that it is similar. My questions for you is that A) does it scream CGI to anyone, B ) it seems to look like it's saying inside/ behind the cloud/fog is there any weather phenomena that would cause something similar? this video is only a few mins long, and I am not affiliated at all with the channel. P.s I have seen that secureteam10 and thirdphaseofthemoon have asked to be able to use this video so would love to discuss before they destroy this video like everything else they touch.

SecretSanta Posted October 19, 2016 #2 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I would like to see a day time shot of the area. I got to Charlotte often for concerts but I'm not familiar with where this hotel is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
preacherman76 Posted October 19, 2016 #3 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Wow that's pretty cool. I've never seen anything like it. I don't really even have a guess. Especially cause they never descended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrLzs Posted October 19, 2016 #6 Share Posted October 19, 2016 If you guys live nearby, why not contact the hotel/media/police/FAA for verification that others saw this (surely there would be more footage from others..), or for a possible explanation. If this was more local to me, I'd do the chasing, but how's about you NC'ers do a bit of groundwork, and see if it comes good and the videographer is genuine. If it does get hijacked by those scammers (secureteam10 and/or thirdphaseofmoon) then you can pretty much wave goodbye, and safely assume it was faked by one of their cronies right from the start. That's how those scumbags operate. It would be great if we could get the owner of the video to join up and contribute... I hate to be a doubter (joking!), but to Q. A - yes, this type of effect is one of the very first things you learn when using programs like After Effects to edit videos and add stuff. Small points of light are pretty easy, in terms of tracking, fading in/out, refocusing effects.. To Q. B - no. The images are shockingly compressed which helps make it look faked - I'd be interested to look at the original files - I note he offered to set up a dropbox link but only for one person who asked... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shouldthisexist Posted October 19, 2016 Author #7 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Wow I didn't even think about searching for other videos of the same event, so far not looking to good seems to be mainly that one source. Im also going to try to get into contact with the YouTube poster and see about getting a original unedited if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrLzs Posted October 20, 2016 #8 Share Posted October 20, 2016 If we could get access to the original, hopefully high quality, file, then it might be possible to look at that fog/smog/haze and see if it corresponds in any way to the fading in/out effects - the lights give the impression that they are behind it, which means the stuff is very low or the lights are high... What that may lead to.. who knows!? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skliss Posted October 20, 2016 #9 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I have a really dumb question..... why would aliens need lights? Surely they would have some type of advanced technology that would allow them, like night vision goggles, to see whatever it is they came here to see without announcing their presence with lights on the bottom of their crafts. Do they manufacture light bulbs on their home planets? I'm not being sarcastic, just trying to put the pieces together logically. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesjr191 Posted October 20, 2016 #12 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I live about 30 minutes from charlotte. Guess i'll start carrying the camera in my hand at night ready to go! I Googled this event and it shows up in no major news site, only youtube and ufo sites. So why'd the local news forgo it? Even a B/S story sells advertisement. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even a B/S story sells advertisement. Agreed, I have been searching and haven't seen any other mentions of it which isn't looking promising. Haven't heard back from the poster yet either. Tried contacting a user on Reddit who said he was going to ask for it to see if be bad got anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like this idea, but i have two theroies. 1) yes they have advanced technology but why use it if isn't necessary, for example we don't equip our cars with night vision goggles to see where we are going. I know that's not the best example but hopefully gets my point across 2) if by chance a UFO does turn out to be an alien space craft maybe those are marking lights like planes have. Some aliens if real might not care at all if we see them. just pure speculation on my part though.

skliss Posted October 20, 2016 #15 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Hey, those are answers. Just gives me some more to think about. I think planes have lights for safety reasons..makes it easier for them to not smash into each other. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wondering Soul Posted October 25, 2016 #16 Share Posted October 25, 2016 I can be 100% certain those are not UFO's The military uses flight patterns like this. Mainly the CH-47, but has been used by AH-64 also. It also could have been the new chaff we've been working on for a few years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So could be used to help verify the chaff idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhinopolis Posted October 27, 2016 #18 Share Posted October 27, 2016 With Russia and China flexing their military might, it makes sense that strange lights have been seen recently in Charlotte and in Phoenix. I'm a believer that our military has advanced weaponry/machinery that the general public is not aware of, and we're perhaps witnessing drills. Of course it's also possible that intelligent beings from somewhere in the vastness of space and time are spying on us like voyuers watching a reality TV show.....lol.

So could be used to help verify the chaff idea. Yes. The new chaff deploys explosive aluminum pods that burst in the air, and super heats the area around it. There are more things that go on but, I can't say. One thing I can say is that the larger pods create, supercell (weather term) on the radars. Causing the area to cook most electronics IE the whatever is trying to hit you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that, in my opinion it is most likely a fake effect that has been added to the video. On 10/26/2016 at 7:42 AM, Wondering Soul said: The military uses flight patterns like this. Really? You did watch the video, and saw the slow movements and lights fading on/off? Can you be specific about what bit of military stuff does that, and why?

As above, I don't see any correlation to the OP video. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrLzs Posted October 28, 2016 #25 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Wondering Soul, I have to ask again, did you watch the video? So how do your explain the rapid fading off and on? or the fact the lights were pretty much in a stationary group, yet some within the group were moving? or how there was no engine/blade noise?
