I don't need to jump through hoops to convince myself it's a balloon. Whatever it was seemed viscous it got hit and kept going with little viscous blobs trailing it after the hit.

Ahh, if it was a balloon would it change the missile's trajectory after impact?

 

[jason10mm]

Or maybe it was these guys....

I think you misunderstood me. I don't think it was a balloon. I was saying that to the guy trying to convince himself it was a balloon. I don't know what it was some kind of flying blob you can see little blobs trailing it after th hit.

 

[Idleyes]

Sorry about that.

 

[Days like these...]

Sorry about that.

No, worries that video is wild especially the one with out the captions you can see the blob rotating from the impact

This isn't really true. Every day a lion wakes up knowing it is gonna (at least try to) run down a gazelle and kill it to eat it. Orcas wake up looking for fish, seals, and other shit to kill. Plenty of insects go out looking for shit to kill and plenty of animals go into a killing frenzy if they are able to do so.

Not to dismiss human's capacity for violence because it is definitely there, but we are one of the few species that can INTELLECTUALLY suppress the instinct to kill/rape/fight even under extreme deprivation/duress. We can CHOOSE to not do these things in ways lesser animals can not.

So the question really is, WHY do we tolerate violence/theft/rape at ANY level? As humans we could, and some do, suppress it almost completely, while other societies practically revel in the chaos and bloodshed.

I think the difference is more that animals don't randomly go on a killing spree for no real reason. A lion or orca won't suddenly wake up and think "I'm going to kill my pride/pod/family and then find and kill as many of my species as possible", unlike humans.

Eh, sometimes they do. Certain species the males kill any cubs/pups they can in order to drive the moms into being fertile. Or they kill other members just to reduce food competition. Or they let babies fall out of the nest/kill them themselves if they think there is a problem that will affect the others. Lots of behavior in animals, particularly mammals, and even other primates, that has an eerie semblance to what we would consider deviant behavior in humans. Chimp tribes go to war with each other. Young males will fight older males for breeding rights.

But I think in the animal world the fighting differential between males is less stark than it often is between humans simply because the weak die off so early. If anything, its the times when male siblings DO bond together to cooperate that are remarkable because otherwise its pretty uncommon. Most mammal groups seem to be largely sister/mother groups with the males pushed out to find their own ways tough across the entire animal kingdom there are examples of every possibility.

The artificiality of modern existence is a stressor that exacerbates deviant behavior, I think. Are there serial killers, rapists, in tribal hunter/gatherer groups? Psychotics, sociopaths? I suspect that behavior can only persist when there is a large enough population that you can't know everyone, otherwise the tribe can (and must) excise their own evil in order to survive.

Not saying one way or another, but this kind of comment just shows you don't know how cameras work. It's easy to get a good shot of something that's mostly stationary, or moving very slowly relative to your position like the moon. It's easier to keep the aperture open on a camera for long to get as much light as possible.

If this is a UFO in the video, chances are it's moving like a bat out of hell, which makes even capturing video of something like that very difficult. It's not staying in one position long enough to get a clear shot, so no shit footage would be poor quality.

 

[Badlucktroll]

As our UFO reality becomes more and more obvious, we must now have the wisdom to ponder, reflect, and ask ourselves not IF they are here but WHY they are here

You just proved my point! People have the CAPACITY to not DO these things yet CHOOSE to still do them unlike a lion that only has the instinct to do so and not the capacity to surpress it. Making us worse than animals!

The dumb fucker who CHOSE to kill an innocent girl on a train because of her skin colour,and the wastes of skin who CHOSE not to intervene prove exactly why this shit species has no hope!

Take away law and consequence and the lion will look more civilized than the human.

Even a lion will stop killing the gazelle if he's confined to a cage. That's what laws are for humans,cages of fear of the consequences acting on their violent actions brings. Take that away and the human starts acting on its hatred. The only difference is that lion only acts on its instinct,the human will CHOOSE to act on its hatred.

And another thing...Tell me again how much the lion kills the other lion for their differences in skin and world views because humans only do that.

The one species who seems hell bent on killing itself.Just look at the senseless wars still happening all over the world.

Don't give me the intelligence shit cuz that shit only proves why we're so unworthy!

Why are they always hanging out in the USA and not anywhere else?

Illegal aliens love the USA.

We've only explored like 5% of the oceans right? Do you guys ever wonder what if they come from the deep sea instead of outer space?

Yes

I find this explanation, along with interdimensional origins (see John Keel), more compelling than outer space

Outer space explanation doesn't make a ton of sense to me given the distances, but what do I know

Ok foil tophat level specualtion here:

After watching the vid multiple times, my best guess is that this thing is creating some sort of an artificial gravity field

It looks to me like the object isnt being propelled towards the direction it's going, rather it is falling to it.

That would explain how the blobs behave after breaking off the main object, and how its behaving after being hit, it's like they are all falling together but sideways.

 

[bighugeguns]

All you can do is speculate, really. Pretty strange behaviour, if I understand it correctly, these things are like dogs, they can apparently sense human intent at distance (Pheromone type of detection through surfaces?), if a drone (non-human) shot something at them, they don't detect the intent and don't make maneuverers / jamming to avoid getting hit. Little weirdos.

If we're all still here after bonking them over their heads, that means they're at least kind of diplomatic, or it simply doesn't register, those three little orbs could be a "fangs out" mode, though.

 

[Nocty]

whatever it is, either human or alien technology, it's seems to be artificial intelligence of some kind.

I've always liked the idea that if Aliens are indeed sending craft here through hidden dimensions or vast space travel, they would be doing so with synths / AI's. Which would explain the often tiny stature and lack of sexual organs etc on typical 'grey' sightings.

They don't need space suits and oxygen since they are not 'living' beings. At least it makes more sense in my head!

That would match up with the telepathy abilities ufo abductees have reported.

That looks nothing alike to me not the shape, not how its breaking up and especially not how they're moving. The orb keeps going the balloon you can tell is in free fall

Why not both? The chinese have been aliens all along.

Occam's Razor: Spy balloon or Aliens?

The object is falling on the left where on the right it is continuing its trajectory

The missile also didn't bounce off the object in the first video

Not quite the same

Psyop and I'm saying this as someone who is a believer of aliens

Psyop, and I'm saying this as someone who believes the universe is too big for other life not to exist, but humanity will never see it for exactly that very reason.

This is a distraction. And a sad one.

 

[Draugoth]

Not an UFO, a impermeable shield would have acted like a wall and the missile would have exploded, even if an UFO was operating under different laws it wouldn't have bounced

I usually just make fun of these things but this video is REALLY weird. It doesn't look like a baloon at all IMO.
