Hoax!!! Bad Videos Claim 'Real Alien Sighting' in Australia

Fake? Probably. This video is so badly made that it's funny. There are so many reasons that this is obviously a hoax that it's hard to know where to begin. Of course, there are plenty of idiot "UFO bloggers" who just post crap like this without comment. Not me. I have too much respect for my readers.

According to "ThePolishedKnob," who posted this video (watch below) on YouTube back on April 23, 2011, "this is the high quality version of this, the sighting was about ten days ago." So, this event apparently happened on April 13, 2011, right?  Well, maybe, but there are some rather clumsy date inconsistencies. Not only that, but there are TWO fraudulent videos by this Australian liar...

Notice the time stamp in the first video (below), which says "15 4 2011." That's April 15, folks, which would be twelve days, not "ten," prior to the posting of this on YouTube. The date is not the only suspicious thing about this video: ThePolishedKnob calls this piece of crap "the high quality version," but it's grainy, shaky, blurry and out of focus even at its highest available setting of 480p. (More of my critique below the video. Advisory for Language.) There is no cat in this version: That's important, as you'll see later.


The first video, above, titled "High Quality: Real Alien Sighting 8, Spooky !!!" was posted on April 23, 2011.  But on  April 22, 2011, ThePolishedKnob posted another video, titled "HIGH QUALITY : Real Alien Sighting Australia & HQ Spooky !!!"  It featured the description, "so i fixed the whole jumpy-ness and it looks alot better." Really? It's not even the same video! And, does ThePolishedKnob also have a time machine?

UFOs: The Observational Reality Supporting ExtraterrestrialVisitations: Part Two

By John Prytz

What's the general evidence for UFOs? Well, you have multi-tens of thousands of sightings, probably six figures worth by now, many multi-witness sightings, more than a few independent multi-witness sightings; sightings by people used to outdoors aerial phenomena (like pilots), films and photographs that have defied the best experts to explain them in conventional terms, radar returns, physical traces, physiological effects on biological tissues, including humans, often more than one of these categories applies. You have a global phenomena, where countries from Australia, the USA, Canada, the United Kingdom, Spain, Belgium, France, Russia, Mexico, etc. have devoted considerable resources to finding answers to what some see as a ‘silly season' with a high ‘giggle' factor. That makes little logical sense – the ‘giggle' factor, not the official investigations.

Look! Up in the sky!

There are neither psychological, sociological or cultural reasons to explain the origin of UFOs in general, nor specific UFO reports. It's all evidence, and grist for the mill. The crux of the matter is not lack of evidence; it is how that evidence is interpreted. So take the bona-fide UFO residue.

Now what is this residue and what happens if you apply Occam's Razor to it? Well, maybe bona-fide UFOs are just ghosts, or angels, or the work of the devil, or some nation's secret weapons, or craft from an advanced civilization that inhabits our hollow Earth! Or, maybe the extraterrestrial hypothesis (ETH) is the most plausible. I think Occam's Razor would err on the side of the ETH.

There must be something suggestive within the evidence to point in the ETH direction, and nearly from the very beginning of the modern UFO phenomena (June 1947). The idea or association didn't just pop out of the ether for no reason

The trouble with UFOs is that they won't stand still! You can't put them under a microscope, poke and prod them, or study and measure them at your leisure like you can most phenomena. You can't predict in advance where and when and for how long they will appear.

Anyone who poo-poos the extraterrestrial hypothesis for UFOs, "it can't be therefore it isn't", clearly hasn't actually studied the subject, read the literature, studied official government investigations and reports, done personal field investigations and interviewed witnesses. Out of all the hundreds of thousands of sightings, worldwide, over all these decades, all it takes is one (smoking gun) case to validate the extraterrestrial hypothesis. Is there anyone out there who can say for 100% certainty that at least one case isn't the real deal?
