I'm not sure why they're so amazed that the story hasn't changed. Children's ability to remember and recall the minutest of details should never be underestimated. Just because as adults our aging brains have difficulty retaining clarity, doesn't mean we should assume children do too. Speak to a child who's passionate about something such as a sport or a pop band and you'll be blown away by the amount of tiny trivial information they can recall with crystal clarity.

Like this kid rattling of a mountain of trivia about Marvel characters at four years old

You're on boards at 11:40, so like me you obviously have nothing better to be doing today so watch the damn video yourself and let us know what you think.

G'day mamm

That's the same spoofer who told Bruce Willis he could see dead people.

I'd hope that everyone, everywhere and everyhow has something better to do than watch over three quarters of an hour of probably poor documentary on dubious, quasi-paranormal bollox. A common tactic on conspiracy theory sites is to post an hour+ long video and ask 'Whaddya think?' without providing so much of a synopsis. Bore your opponents into submission!

Yes they go to the island and the child was right, they landed on the beach. They went to the hotel and the following day they went in search of the family the kid claimed to belong to. They didnt find the house and the historian said there wasn't a family by that name where the child said he lived.

The next day the historian called them back and said he found out more info, and told them where the house was. They didnt tell the kid where they were going, but when they got to the house he was super upset. He knew there was a secret gate that led to the beach.

They found a living relative of the family and in her summer pictures, the dog the boy described was in the photos.

However, there was nobody by his fathers name and the lady did not remember any accidents that killed a father or a child.

going by what you said, it sounds like you have "all" the information regards to this case, not just the video (as that can be edited) I would like to hear how you came to you findings ?

watched it all, weird how the kid knew so much about somewhere obscure and isolated, had the name right ,the dog right, the secret gate, the rock pool, the planes landing on the beach , the view from the window..

all could be anywhere in the world but to pick barra and the name of a family that were blow ins to the island and a house in a remote part of that island is pretty hard to believe ..

weird weird weird.

The border Collie (sheepdog), is one of the most common type of breeds around. Rockpools and a view of the beach are not unusual in beach side houses, which are often white.

If I tell you that in a past life, I lived in a Norwegian fishing village with a family called the Nielsens, and the dad had a little fishing trawler, and the family owned an elkhound, and I used to swim in the little harbour with the dog, all of which was visible from our cute chalet, would you believe me if we went to Norway and all of those things existed?

The kid didn't seem to know his way around the basic structure of the house, he seemed to believe Barra was where he lived as opposed to a holiday home (the family lived in glasgow) and there was no real life equivalent of the people to whom he claimed to be related.

I actually read the kid's emotion on reaching the holiday home completely differently to how some people are reading it - to me it looked like the kid felt he was being confronted with the myth, that perhaps he was about to meet someone in the family who was going to debunk his illusions. This would also explain his resistance before he met one of the genuine Robertsons.

Geezuz!! I was actually in work. And now I'm at home but still don't wana waste 40 mins watching it hahaha, maybe I will later

Sounds a bit like a paracosm. It's not uncommon for children to have imaginary friends, and the more imaginative ones can have entire imaginary universes. It also wouldn't be surprising if elements of the real world are incorporated into the fantasy. The most likely explanation is that the kid has a good imagination and saw a picture or a tv show or something about Barra.

That being said I really don't know how healthy it is for a child to have all this attention heaped onto his fantasy. If the adults in the child's life all believe his fantasy, and are thereby reenforcing it, will he ever grow out of it as normal kids would? It seems a little irresponsible to say the least.

it's probably got something to with all the time and all of the resources that believers have had to come up with some proof of anything and their failure to do so - even when everyone has a smart phone.

Russell's teapot. I'm not the one believing fanciful nonsense like reincarnation. If you or any one else had actual proof of this I (and many others) would be delighted to see it

I don't consider any stories like this credible tbh, and I'll bet my lunch money this one's no different.

OK lets Russell's teapot it. You have made the claim that this is all a load of drivel. Therefor the burden of proof is on you to back up this claim.

I don't think you understand Russell's teapot. Russell's teapot relies on prima facie bases for claims, not determinations based on who thinks 'x' is drivel.

You probably think I'm not riding my dinosaur as I type this, but I am.

prove I'm not.

OK so its all down to beliefs then.
In that case lets use Russels Teapot again for all those Hindu people who believe in Reincarnation and ask Kaiser to backup his findings. I know he wont do this backing up my argument of "i am scared , must ridicule" Which i now call The Kaiser

No, where are you getting this?

Where there is no prima facie basis for a claim - i.e. where the claim does not appear to positively correspond with known facts - the burden of proof to demonstrate why this apparent anomaly ought to be overlooked falls firstly on the individual promoting theories seemingly incompatible with facts.

You really don't understand Russell's Teapot, do you? Do you think the fact that many people believe something make it true? Is this your level of cognition?

I can't watch all that. Where in the video does he stare up at the camera with the Damien vibe coming off him?

That would be a time saver.

("Ah c'mon now son, tell the twuth and shame the AAAAAAAAAAAaaaaa)" .:eek:

asdfg!

Planes do land on the beach at Barra, so he got that right. But it's no secret and I'm sure it was covered on TV at some point. It's certainly all over Youtube.

Kids are sponges, they absorb everything and can repeat it at will. As I found out to my cost when both my kids told my sister in law something about me I didn't know they knew.:eek: I think, hope she believed my explanation.

So you do have to take what they say with a pinch of salt.

On the other hand, my six year old announced to me the other day that that when you die you become a baby again inside someone's tummy. When I didn't agree with him, he became uncharacteristically upset and angry. So now I'm spooked.
