    in fairness, this is kind of their point. that aliens have been visiting for ages and theres loads of footage of them as well as accounts of them. That they all describe them like this as this is what they look like.

    As i said i'm a sceptic to this sort of stuff but if the alien looked different it would make their whole argument groundless as it would prove all the eye witness accounts of actual aliens were fake if this one was real.

    In your quote above you use the word 'imagined'. the point is that they're claiming it wasn't imagined, that it was just what all those chaps who 'kept themselves to themselves' actually saw. the wya your thinking about it is putting the cart before the horse.

    But have you considered the possibility that this particular image of an alien has been imprinted in our minds from decades of the same stereotypical likeness from movies, tv shows, etc. And when someone does imagine/dream coming in contact with one, the 'alien' will of course look like what they have always imagined an alien looks like.

    No, because that's exactly how humans have imagined they look like since the sixties.
    What are the chances?

    The chances that these are the same aliens that abducted people, the very same people from which we imagine them to be?

    Very high.

    the reported image came first, media latched onto it and it became the stereotypical image for aliens, because it was a mass reported description. but the descriptions came first. now i agree that later abductees/nutbars would have probably had this image in their heads so would regurgitate it if its not a real 'abduction' as its what they know to be an alien. but the reports did come before the sensationalism so odds are if this is all real, that would be what they look like.

    All the same i think theres an incredibly high chance that its all pure BS

    Of course, there's also the possibility that different races of aliens have invaded

    Guys you do know that isn't the real video right? The public won't see the actual footage until the end of the year if we're lucky. It was only shown to a room of select members of the press today and is around 3 minutes long. The video going around at the moment is a fake, it's not even shot in infared for fcuksake!

    That said I doubt the real tape is going to be any better :p

    Oops. That explains it. There's hope yet.
    €10 says it won't look like that anyway.

    This is where the fake vid surfaced. Notice the other amazing footage they have on that page, included actual footage of laser pens alien probes!

    Even if it was real, could we tell the difference?

    Like who actually believes Aliens or whatever have visited this earth, while we have been around?

    To think that you would have to be crazy imo :p

    Anyway stills will show up of this video in the next few days and it will have been captured with a sagem phone like all the of other videos, 90% of ufologists seem to be scammers and dont own hd camcorders...

    Something strange that people never think about regarding aliens, they always seem to be roughly the same size as humans, but they could come from planets larger than earth, and be proportionally fecking HUGE compared to us, the chances of them the same size as us is near impossible. Even different species on earth are massive, a mouse from another planet could be like the thing in cloverfield compared to us.

    Actually intelligent beings elsewhere in universe would likely be similar to us in dimensions anway. The bigger the planet the more gravity and this would affect size. There are certain proportions/apparent laws in biology that mean that the brain size/volume and neuron density etc we have is optimum for high level consciousness and intelligence. Bigger brain does'nt mean smarter eg;whale I can't remember the exact implications of these laws of astrobiology but I can safely say any intelligent aliens could'nt be the size of mountains or smaller than bacteria.Theres some good documentaries about it on youtube, search for astrobiology.

    Would it not be fairer to say that the harshness of the world forced our primitive monkey brains to adapt and that is why we consider ourselves smarter than, say, an elephant.

    As for the video, I would say that more likely than being staged by this guy, the guy probably has video cameras dotted about his house running all day and night, and a few drunken mates decided to play a practical joke on him by putting on a mask and appearing in front of his window.

    Does anybody remeber a "real" alien footage video from about ten years ago supposedly taken in mexico?There was a lot of talk about it at the time amongst the Weird Beard fraternity.Apparantly it was a non-humanoid yoke being chased by a load of melon farmers or something complete with hysterical spanish dialogue.Cant find it anywhere.:mad:

    saw the video footage and i believe that the troll was just stoping for a quick piss stop!

    My guess is that it's the real thing. After all, given the number of Americans who have seen/spoken to/been abducted by aliens, they must be swarming about there like Times Square on a Monday morning. Sooner or later someone is bound to photograph one. And why shouldn't he be looking in the window? They often abduct American women (though God knows why) so they are obviously of a voyeuristic temperament:D

    News crews were told to turn their cameras away so no video of the "being" can be shown in public until the film can be analyzed.

    Will be interesting to see what the experts will say about the video.
