esoteric_toad Posted January 28, 2020 #2 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Tempered glass can spontaneously break like that due to stresses even at the tiniest point. No paranormal anything needed. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoofGardener Posted January 28, 2020 #3 Share Posted January 28, 2020 (edited) If this is a CCTV camera, then why is it wobbling ? And why do we see such a short snippet ? And why is it mobile-phone aspect ratio ? Somebody stood with a mobile phone and took this video. Why where they recording, JUST when the glass smashed. Bit of a co-incidence, no ?

It's a clip of that particular incident recorded off the CCTV monitor using a mobile phone. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acute Posted January 28, 2020 #8 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Come on, folks..... it was "formerly a 19th-Century funeral parlour" FFS. What shop owners are gonna smash their own display case? IMHO, this is an open-and-shut coffin. Edit: case 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calibeliever Posted January 28, 2020 #11 Share Posted January 28, 2020 (edited) I spent a few minutes going through their youtube channel. A lot of things falling off of shelves and walls. My first thought is you should invest in sturdier wall hangings and leveler shelves. Nothing on there was unexplainable, but I have to say if I worked somewhere where stuff just kept randomly flying off of shelves it might get unnerving. I don't have anything to offer on why the glass shattered, but there at least a few non-paranormal explanations for how that could have happened. TBH, if I were an investigator I'd certainly be interested in getting to the bottom of what's happening here since there are multiple occurrences. Of course we can't rule out trickery for publicity's sake, but a decent investigator should be able to rule that out (or in) pretty quickly.

moonman Posted January 28, 2020 #12 Share Posted January 28, 2020 (edited) This video is WAY old, we've talked about it here before. Tempered glass can explode with little provocation, I've seen it happen. Edited January 28, 2020 by moonman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papageorge1 Posted January 28, 2020 #13 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Well, glass exploding could possibly have a natural explanation but in conjunction with all the other alleged incidents in the shop I'm thinking a paranormal explanation is more likely.

Crikey Posted January 29, 2020 #14 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Any particular reason why the glass exploded outwards instead of inwards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These things so often turn out to be advertising gimmicks. For all we know the glass was already broken and they decided to use the broken glass as advertising before repairing the cabinet. This is so similar to so many other advertising gimmicks that people have posted. papameter: 0% paranormal 100% advertising gimmick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stereologist Posted February 5, 2020 #23 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Here is another case of being fooled by an advertising gimmick. Quote 60% Paranormal / 40% hoax or natural phenomena to 70/30 Papageorge1's papameter goes for the advertising gimmick. Like I stated, two failures despite the statement above and here it is: "Not once do I recall one proven to be an advertising gimmick." It happens. You get fooled when you are stuck in the woo box with the false belief of thinking outside the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably comes across as snide criticism but I am serious. You are now on to case two and you still haven’t shown case one. I’ve debated with you a hundred times before but you made more sense than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve debated with you a hundred times before but you made more sense than this. I pointed out two cases of advertising gimmick in which you claimed it was paranormal. You tried to suggest you've never fallen for an advertising gimmick and I showed that was wrong in two cases. Please try to keep up. It's okay to be wrong. Just admit that you fell for two advertising gimmicks. It has probably happened more often but two mistakes is enough.
