Mainstream media coverage of UFO sightings

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87PRV...el_video_title

It's a big twelve minutes of ufo/strange things in the skies covered by mainstream media. Some of it is old, but there were a few things in there I hadn't seen.

For example, the light that drops and then ascends over the rock in Jerusalem.

I'm trusting you guys to calm me the fuck down.

Calm down? Fuck no KMD, the ALIENS are coming and they're gonna EAT YOU.

Well, after spending some time gang-probing you that is...

But seriously dude, that video had a Zoom in on the Dollar Bill "Pyramid Eye" for no apparent reason. You should know that it's not to be trusted when it goes straight for that kind of emotional appeal.

As for the "mainstream coverage" the spiral over Norway was a missile that "spun out" and in New York, folks just happened to have released a bunch of yellow balloons into the air in Chelsey and it was the lights of the city reflecting off of those that made people scream "UFO!"

Lay off the X-Files.

Yeah I know it's hokey, but the Jerusalem video was creepy. I looked it up and found a bunch of other vids with the same light.

Look up the "Lights over Phoenix". That shit made the front page of the state paper, I saw it personally, about 15 miles north west of wickenburg. It was NOT any form of traditional aircraft. It was NOT flares. I think the flare thing was something that got staged to cover up whatever had happened previously, to give those responsible a way to explain things to the general public.

I figure it was probably some kind of experimental aircraft. Can't wait 'til it gets commercialized though, that shit was cool!

Most of those are debunked or had a legitimate explanation. The light over Jerusalem for example, if you pay attention to the lights of the city itself rather than the ball of light, there are no light trails when the camera moves. There should be and there isn't.

The spiral Desp. already explained.

The Creepy blue light show in Russia. No one but, the camera man notices it. I'm not sure but if I saw shit like that, I would pull my car over and start taking pictures.
