I have to say that I am easily fooled but then on the other hand I pride myself with very good people knowledge. Having watched all three clips, these points jumped straight out IMO:
Pro:
- I think the swearing is no indicator of anything, that's just the way teen boys express themselves
- The way how the camera holder has to ask where it has gone and his friend giving him directions.
- All camera movements are those I would expect someone to do if confronted with something they are not sure about where it is. [Meaning that if it was a hoax, you'd know where it is and even if you'd try and disguise the fact that you know, it would show.
- The fear of going out after the thing shows its light source. Camera boy stays in a safe place behind the doors and is reluctant to go out.
- Short showing of friend, who looks worried, his arms are crossed and he doesn't look sheepish. There is real concern in his face.
- Trembling voice. You can hear real trembling in the camera boy's voice at some point and the way he says [swears] things sound appropriate for what is happening.
- Logical moves that are only made after a while. Such as switching all lights off. A hoax would not develop so naturally, they would know when to do what and it would be acted out in a predictable way.
- The 'alien's' light source looks like a laser in the last posted video, yet is seems big and round front on.
- Disappearance of said alien when it could be milked a little longer in a hoax.
- Camera boy's insistence that it is true and his anger towards non-believers. Often with hoaxes, the less is said the better, as you can only dig yourself in deeper.
- Alien is not CGI. Size of alien is obvious and has to be a smaller child [brother?] or indeed a small creature.
Of course we could have some very clever boys here and it could all be a hoax, these are the things that are a little too obvious:
- Alien looks too much like you'd expect.
- Alien is too good to be true.
- They swear too much??? :?
- He has a night vision camera handy when this happens.
- The two seem 'home alone' and hence a hoax would be easier to pull off.
Do I believe or not is impossible to say at this stage but whilst other videos in the past had me LOL because they were so obvious, I have to say this is a good one, either real [or they believe it to be real] or two boys that should be snatched up as future film makers as they certainly have the talent. I won't make my mind up yet and see what everyone else is thinking and check it against viability.
Interesting, good find!
