Great case of debunking, NOT. How about taking a longer look at this and giving an informed opinion?
If this is fake, let's hear some "expert" advise about how it was done, and why. Instead of a quick, summary glance and a snide remark.

I'm a newbie HERE, not to the field of UFO research. I am not a video or photoshop expert, so if this is indeed fake, tell us "not so skilled in video faking" how this is done and what to look for in the future.

Thanks.

Peace!
 
I have no idea what it might be. But I do know that there is always a kzillion possibilities that I don't think of. There was that spiral looking thing recently that was identified as a failed Russian rocket spraying out fuel as the rocket was tumbling around. I never would have thought of that possibility hadn't someone else suggested it.

I am not an expert either. But, there is considerable pixelation, especially on the left side of the object in question, which leads me to say it is suspect. Further context and/or expert analysis of the actual footage is needed before any real determination can be made for sure. The self-serving annoying ads during the playback do not help to bolster credibility at all, though.

With that said, it is indeed intriguing footage.

I for one would like to see a real video expert's analysis.
 
If I were to fathom a guess, I'd say an insect as well...possibly a wasp or an ant.

Now as to how I would do this? Calling upon all of my expertise in special effects...which is NONE, I would put a pane of glass in a 3 sided frame. I would then attach the bug to that pane of glass. I would then film with the pane of glass being in my camera's field of view. At the moment that I wish this thing to disappear, I would rapidly lift the pane of glass (or an assistant would.)

Then I'd post it on YouTube and count how many hits it receives.

At least that's how I'd fake it.
 
Well for a start all I did was ask what people think about the video and the bug thing is a joke.
No debunking from me just put the thing up here to see what people think. Having seen a UFO myself at least twice I am far from ready to cut anything down.
This was just an interesting video that is all... Can we trust it.. hmmm maybe and maybe not.
As far as an informed opinion is concerned the fact that no comment for or against has come from me would state that I have not made my mind up either way as yet.

Considering 99.9% of the videos making the rounds on the internet are fakes, phonies, or objects that can be identified as something else (flying lanterns have been showing up a lot), I am now taking the attitude that any video is "guilty until proven innocent." There are way too many jackasses out there who hype their video as absolute proof of the existence of UFOs without bothering first to get an expert opinion or analysis done. And then there are the jackasses who are creating fraudulent video with CGI and special effects and trying to pass it off as absolute proof.
This has only been compounded by Greer's recent antics over his photographs that "prove definitively the existence of aliens." I just can't get excited over another video of "UFOs." If MUFON says there might be something to it, then let's talk.
