David Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 On a related note, I watched a documentary a few weeks ago that was some sort of attempt to re-vitalise Von Daniken's standing. They had a few skeptics on, but they were quickly brushed under the carpet. I thought he'd been so thoroughly discredited that he'd never come back, but oh no, the believers don't care how much of a charlatan you are. What channel was the documentary on? Quote
Loki Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 Von Daniken's a lunatic. Even his spiritual successor, Graham Hancock, doesn't buy into any of Von Daniken's shit. I remember reading Fingerprints of the Gods when I was about 18, and being blown away by it. Now even he accepts his theories in it are bunkum. Disappointing, but an education for me in how actual scientific investigation and methodology works. Quote

Loki Posted April 12, 2010 Posted April 12, 2010 This is a bit more like it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YPffKmZYv4...feature=popular UFO! Fighter jets! Wobbly cam! Quote
Steve Justice Posted April 12, 2010 Posted April 12, 2010 Saw that on the Sun website over the weekend. One plonker on the message boards said the whole thing looks fake, including the trucks in the car park and the background traffic noise. Pratt. Quote
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted April 12, 2010 Paid Members Posted April 12, 2010 that's a really weird piece of footage, i saw it in the paper and meant to check it out. thanks for posting it Quote

I think that's particularly good and intriguing footage, but why did it stop when it did? What about other witnesses? What happened next? I've heard the MoD have refused to comment, which is also interesting. Suppose they could have been testing a new fancy aircraft. Quote
BionicRedneck Posted April 12, 2010 Posted April 12, 2010 (edited) Surely the bigger question would be why would aliens come all this way just to visit the West Midlands? And why do they always seem to just hover in the sky in broad daylight? For incredibly advanced creatures, they don't seem very smart. Edited April 12, 2010 by BionicRedneck Quote

Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted April 12, 2010 Paid Members Posted April 12, 2010 I agree with Kris. Why does the video end after 30 seconds? If I were recording a UFO that has two fighter jets streaking towards it I'd make sure to record as much as I could. Quote
Loki Posted April 12, 2010 Posted April 12, 2010 Yeah, plus the fighters don't seem to be moving, there are no contrails, and no sound of jet engines. Quote
Moderators neil Posted April 12, 2010 Moderators Posted April 12, 2010 You really wouldn't expect contrails at that elevation, but seems odd to me those jets never reach the target! Quote
