Angel or Alien?

[commonpeople1]

What do you guys think of this recent UFO sighting in Jerusalem? My first thought was "Israeli army" but now that I've seen it a few times I'm thinking that it moves way too fast - unless it was attached to some kind of cable which pulled it up (and it was quite light). Very strange.

Which is why I specified that I wasn't talking about that one.

Gotcha. I was confused by the fact that this was the one you replied to and there were only two videos linked from the post at the time one of which has obvious cuts in the footage.

*heh* So... there were two videos, and one of them wasn't the one I was talking about, but you were confused as to which one I _was_ talking about? Long week, eh? :-)

Um... now I'm even more confused. If you were only talking about ONE video how did you find discrepancies in the timing?

I was talking about the original, uncut videos of which Ollie posted cut versions from a newsreel. The very-obviously-faked-from-a-still-image one (in the OP) differs (in its uncut form) from the blurry-long-distance-can't-see-much-other-than-digital-flare ones (in their uncut form). Even in their cut form, from the newsreel, discrepancies (like the lack of flash and reaction to flash in one) are fairly clear, which means that at least one of the videos is definitely a fake, and chances are the others are too.

Hmm... They differ in timing? Not when played side by side.

Which is why I said, a few comments back, "Some of the other videos (not the three-way ones) seem to show a longer period between descent and ascent; I guess maybe they've been slowed down.
Or, y'know, they're fake."

You really have had a long week, huh?

[steer.livejournal.com]

The three way ones include the first one ollie posted.

That's right, they do. And that has absolutely no bearing on, well, anything. Get some sleep; perhaps you'll be able to follow this better in the morning... :-)

Heh. Guess I will.
