The best evidence that UFOs represent spacecraft from other worlds consists of grainy photographs, blurry videos, and anecdotes about things that go bump in the night. In this episode Michael Shermer shows how easy it is to fake UFO photographs, enlisting the help of children and disposable cameras to create convincing photographic evidence that even fooled experts!

One important point …
One important point to make is that in alot of cases people aren’t really interested in proving or disproving things. They simply want to believe something, they look for a little evidence to back it up and then they are happy. I’m not just talking about UFOs either. Quite often i’ve heard examples where people have been exposed as hoaxers and yet their popularity among the public does not suffer, sometimes it even goes up…

@siyuanthesuper1 …
@siyuanthesuper1 Actually the opposite is more likely true. In reality those pictures or videos which are TOO CLEAR (like B.Meiers’ 1’s)are more likely fakes. Try this experiment the next time you see a plane. Video-tape it. I promise you it will be blurry. This is a result of trying to image a high flying-far away object with normal camera optics.

For those interested in seeing Shermer having his handed to him by the brilliant and far more “Bright” Stephen C. Meyer, check out my profile. Once you see the intellectual beatdown Meyer gives him you’ll never look at Shermer the same again.
Thanks

I agree with the picture thing, but what about the military witnesses, the many CIA and MOD conclusions that 2% are unexplained. What about the Robertson Panel.

This video makes no …
This video makes no consideration of UFO photos examined by multiple experts; or that have radar, eyewitness, physical trace, and/or other corroborating evidence. At the mall, he seems to berate UFO believers for not reversing their positions on the spot based solely on a single piece of data — which would be unscientific in the extreme. This video definitely provides some interesting food for thought, but it fails to make a convincing case for dismissing UFO photos categorically.

“Dude
Don’t waste your energy arguing with that blackadderthe4
guy. He’s an idiot.” So why post it else where? Out of sight but not out of mind! What’s wrong cat’s got your tongue? Or just frightened of the truth, because I know it can hurt when you have invested so much of your life in scams, hoaxes and myths! So how am I an idiot? It’s not me who believe in fairy tales! You just can’t hold a reasonable argument with well thought out opposition! In other words you are a big FAIL!

I don’t get your reply. Did you actually read the last few comments? We’re talking about a document on the FBI website.

@AristotleP you have basically succumbed to exactly what M. Shermer is talking about….even admitting forgery and fakes, those people are STILL willing to believe. Aristotle, have you heard of Occam’s Razor? If not, look it up.

The material …
The material concerning the Animal Mutilation Project contains accounts of animal mutilations which were reported during the late 1970’s. The FBI became involved when fifteen mutilations occurred in New Mexico. Various theories concerning the origins of the mutilations were explored by the FBI, including satanic cults, UFOs, pranksters, and natural predators. The investigation failed to identify any individuals responsible for the mutilations.

“The investigation failed to identify any individuals responsible for the mutilations” well it certainly wasn’t aliens! And what happened here “I will no longer dignify your stupidity with a response” just goes to show that you ufologist can’t be trusted!

What does that have to do with the FBI memo on the first file? There’s a number of different cases compiled in those files. Nothing As in cattle mutilations. You don’t seem to be able to get that through you dumb skull.

“I will no longer dignify your stupidity with a response” big fail you just have LOL! But it’s your ploy to run away when you’ve lost the argument and have nothing left in your armoury! “Even a link to a document on the FBI website which you couldn’t even read” Oh you mean the one that said
“The investigation failed to identify”
which means it’s about nothing! So this is your level of evidence is it? Nothing was found so it must have been aliens!

How many government document links have I given you now? Even a link to a document on the FBI website which you couldn’t even read the description properly. you’re basically ignoring everything and posting the same garbage.
