UM-Bot Posted July 14, 2022 #1 Share Posted July 14, 2022 A very strange (and somewhat questionable) video has emerged online showing a mysterious alien-like figure. https://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/news/359143/weird-stick-thin-creature-shows-up-on-cctv-footage 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+OverSword Posted July 14, 2022 #2 Share Posted July 14, 2022 This is from some video game or something I think. Security cameras don't generally zoom, pan or otherwise move. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the13bats Posted July 14, 2022 #3 Share Posted July 14, 2022 its a person holding the cam so the story is bs likely cgi hoax. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Security cameras don't generally zoom, pan or otherwise move. Cheaper camera's don't but the high end cameras can. They can zoom in on motion detection and license plate cameras can zoom in on just the license plate. World has come a long way from the Browning box cameras. Here is one that is 80,000mp on the Empire State building. https://www.earthcam.net/projects/empirestatebuilding/gigapixelpanorama/2021/ Use you middle mouse wheel to zoom in and out. This isn't live as there isn't any movement. I don't remember how much this one cost but a similar one was $20,000 dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trelane Posted July 14, 2022 #7 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Maybe someone mucking around in one of those full body suits. Just pixelated enough to not be able to say it's a hoax outright, but that's my opinion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonman Posted July 14, 2022 #10 Share Posted July 14, 2022 (edited) It's a guy sneaking around in a light colored body suit on a crap cctv feed screen, then filmed on a cell phone. Nothing cgi or alien or "stickman" about it, just crap quality video of a weirdo. Does not deserve a discussion thread.

I think you nailed it but that isn’t a body suit, it’s a cheap-ass flir first gen. Shows heat signature in black and white or greens. they sound Alabaman. I think they are using a game cam as a security cam. Edited July 14, 2022 by Nobu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Background objects all look like they were filmed under normal light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the13bats Posted July 14, 2022 #14 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Idk, i watched it a couple more times would the cam distort it that much, it doesnt appear to be wearing clothes as in shirt pant, shoes, at one point hair or beard might whisk by but im guessing, the scale with the vehicle seems about right. Or i can go PGF excuses and say no man could ever walk or move like that. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC1701 Posted July 14, 2022 #15 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Does not seem to be a security camera. Usually these have timestamps or other text somewhere in the frame. Creature (deformed human being) looks like recorded in thermal IR and photoshopped in the video Alien 10% Hoax 70% paranormal 25% 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of people and businesses are using cheap web cams for security these days. The timestamps and other metadata are embedded in the file instead of on the video. Last summer I served on a grand jury and I got to see lots of security cam footage. They all started with the time and date on the screen which disappeared after a few seconds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrobeing Posted July 14, 2022 #18 Share Posted July 14, 2022 It looks animated to me. If you step frame by frame you can see each step of the "creature" is just three frames or four frames. When the "creature" is turning its body, the motion looks choppy to me. This uneven motion does give it a spooky insect-like appearance though so maybe that's what they were going for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astrobeing Posted July 14, 2022 #21 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Also notice that the video suddenly cuts off exactly before the "creature" is about to go behind the hanging object in the foreground? Isn't that an odd time for it to end while the "creature" is still visible? I bet that's when the animation accidentally composed the "creature" on top of the foreground object. It takes some work to get an animated object to go behind an uneven object like that: a pole and something hanging from it. You have to trace a mask around the foreground object pixel perfect and even then you have the risk of the animated object spilling around the object which completely reveals what's happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Splendor Solis Posted July 15, 2022 #25 Share Posted July 15, 2022 It's one thing for people to make videos like this. As long as they aren't actually trying to fool people into believing these Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
