I saw this today and it actually sent chills up my spine and had to watch it multiple times. I doubt their authenticity, but it's still amazing to see. Maybe they're from the Transformers special effects guys?

Those videos look a little too good... I recently saw on Discovery, the Aurora, Texas UFO crash from 1897. It's quite an interesting "incident" but still has some iffy problems attached.

It says Haiti, yet the radio dude is talking in Spanish. Also, Haiti, I've never been, looks an awful lot like the San Fernando Valley. Though, I suppose many places do.

I see little reason why other life isn't possible. I'm quite sure that these vids are faked. The first vid, that only has one type of UFO is done quite well. The second vid, not so much. The longer ones look fake.

All the palm trees are exactly the same as well.

It is a Halo 3 marketing campaign. Excellent stuff!

You can see the same ships here:

We see weird flying objects all the time, but there are lots of military bases in my state, so no one knows if they are UFOs or new planes.

Just got back from summer holiday to find that my roommate left me an Unidentified Floating Object in the commode...

Back in the days when people had super 8 cameras, we got pie plates being swung around on fishing lines or hub caps thrown in the air. Oddly, we never got really cool footage like that. Now that we have widely available rendering software to make stuff like that, suddenly our UFO footage is much better.

Do the aliens keep an eye on the current state of technology and decide "okay, they can hoax X now, so let's stop with the pie plate on fishing line maneuvers, unless we're being tracked by Mexican gun camera video or many independent video camera owners outside of Pheonix. Then lets switch back to blobs of light."

Funny! I am too, but I wasn't going to say anything. I tried fishing for a response. Damnit! I almost caught one and it was <----------------------THIS -------------------------> big!

Very interesting.

I've never seen one of these before. Must be the new 2008 model I've heard so much about. You know, the one with 5x5 hyper-nacelles and infinite improbability turbo drive.

I lilke the lines, but they sure look like they drive like a cow. Talk about slow! An F-16 could run circles around them while towing an advertising banner. My guess is it's the new, stricter fuel efficiency standards messing up performance again.

Say, shouldn't this be in the technology forum?

I hope that UFOs are real. They'd justify all the guns I have hidden underneath my bed.

Personally, I'm heart-broken posters didn't choose me to be Earth's official Extra-terrestrial welcomer. I know I could give'em a real and warm greeting that symbolizes all nations and make them feel confortable so to show them we are not a hostile people.

I would walk up to them with a warm smile, wearing my Sunday best, hold out my hand in friendship and extend my index finger like E.T. and kindly say with a straight face, "Pull my finger." and let one rip.
