Totally bogus ...

#1: when the lens zooms in the camera shake should get worse because of the increased magnification, however if anything the shake becomes less when zoomed in.


Fake UFO video rating ...  6/10 for production value,  8/10 for effort.

We shall see. I don't find the shakey explanation a full blow to the films. As you may have seen, two independant videos arose. http://www.examiner.com/exopolitics-in-seattle/is-ufo-orb-over-dome-of-the-rock-jerusalem-a-context-communication-by-et

The street lights (real) do not leave a trail when camera shake changes their position in the frame,
but the alleged flying object leaves a trail of ghost images when it exits ...

 [ Invalid Attachment ]

If the flying object were real there would be consistency between it and other lights in the scene.


[Stephen Spielberg has nothing to worry about].

PS
If it were real and as bright as a streetlight it would also have the 6-point starburst effect like the streetlights

I could offer an explanation for that. The street lights, even though the camera may move, are in fact stationary. If an object moves fast enough, it is possible to creat a trail. I am not an expert on luminosities, but the fact only that leaves a trail would make me assume it has something to do with what is stationary and what isn't. The object moves relative to the camera man, while the street lights are fixed on the horizon.

I tend myself to agree with the star burst effect thought. A very accute point.

There is also an obvious edit in the sound track @ 0:25 immediately after “sh1t"
So if the poster is claiming this is raw unedited footage then they're telling porkie pies.

Anybody think this photo on Wikimedia looks familiar?

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jerusalem_night_7088.JPG



Note, not a single light turns on or off.  No cars driving.  Nothing changes in the whole photo for the duration of the film.

Brighten that image up a bit, and what do you get?

So...
If one movie is faked?
What about the others?

(see the commentary here).

My goodness! Do you mean to say there are people out there who would actually fake stuff like this? How gullible do they think we are?

If you are going to fake a video.
Don't use a background image that can be found on the internet with a 5 minute search (well, a couple more minutes, but it wasn't that hard to find).  After I made the match, I saw other references to it.  I don't know if others "found it", or found my posts  :P

Something just seems odd with the other videos, like they are both the same video, and the distortions in the one were deliberately put into it.
