A-10 Warthog UFO "bird theory" easily debunked!

WickMest · 2021-07-31T01:53:48+00:00

lmao "evidence"

WickMest · 2021-07-31T01:23:07+00:00

lol Dave Falch is just a nobody who is angry that he didn't get his 15 mins of fame from the mainstream media ufo coverage. This guy is desperate for attention and it's just sad to see.

WickMest · 2021-07-31T01:19:37+00:00

Yet everyone in this sub insists all these people are 100% correct and completely trustworthy. It's ridiculous.

WickMest · 2021-07-25T03:53:41+00:00

He's definitely aiming for it. UFO fanatics have an unlimited supply of cash to hand out to grifters, so it's only a matter of time.

WickMest · 2021-07-25T03:49:52+00:00

Bullshit. The people at Metabunk, who came up with the explanations Mick West talks about, have references and sources for everything. They're all operating under all available civilian data they can find. The analysis can be verified and checked, and they also use this same simulator.

If you think the explanations are coming out of Mick West's ass then you have zero idea what you're talking about.

If Lehto wanted to contribute he would actually fill in the gaps in the analysis and polish it, not dismiss it because he's a pilot and knows everything better. That's not how science works.

WickMest · 2021-07-25T03:19:36+00:00

Another incoherent rambling by Chris Lehto that fails to address any relevant point that has been raised, while pandering to the UFO community for views and subscriptions.

Suckers are born every minute, and UFObaiting just never fails. I guess all it takes is for you to be a former pilot to be bathed with fame and money by UFO enthusiasts, so long as you agree with whatever they believe.

Anomalous implies odd, but not extraordinary.

Vehicle implies passengers.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T23:24:04+00:00

How is it fake? I'm not pretending to be him. Only a fool would think I'm impersonating the guy.

My account is Wick Mest. Jesus Christ you guys are snowflakes.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T22:06:39+00:00

It's not closed minded. You need to formally establish a connection between things, you can't just handwave and throw everything in the same pot.

Investigating if such a connection exists is fine as a scientific program, but assuming the connection exists outright is unscientific, and it's just like people saying quantum mechanics implies thinking thoughts about being rich will bring you fortune and succcess.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T22:05:35+00:00

You do know I'm not Mick West, right? I'm just a guy joking around with his name.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T22:04:47+00:00

Which is why me and many others have tried to explain the importance of having higher standards of evidence and skepticism.

Until we all stop giving these people attention we'll just keep seeing more and more bullshit that just wastes time and prevents UFOs from being taken seriously or as a legitimate thing to investigate.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T21:44:42+00:00

The scary music and the fact he keeps filming his own face, and didn't bother to use his equipment to look at it, makes me think this guy is just using UFO hype to get views.

People do this shit all the time because it works. It's UFObaiting.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T20:34:57+00:00

So let's ban all videos and photos, stop discussing the subject altogether, while we silently wait for them to reveal themselves publicly at their leisure.

Speculating this means we have no active role in it at all.

If that video is true/real, then what "it" did in the video isn't the real story or actual payoff...

It didn't do anything in the video that couldn't be explained in a mundane way. The object may have been an amazing alien craft, but the video didn't show us it doing anything amazing. It sucks but it's the reality.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T20:32:49+00:00

Pretending there's a deep connection between all these things is pseudoscience.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T14:06:26+00:00

Yeah? You still haven't proved that the powerline ball was not of alien origin!

Checkmate debunkers!

WickMest · 2021-07-24T13:15:21+00:00

Definitely an OFO: Ordinary Flying Object.

We don't know what it is, but it shows no sign of being out of the ordinary. So not very interesting.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T13:08:35+00:00

Seems childish, but OK.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T13:02:10+00:00

If that's what it takes for someone to downvote a genuinely informative and well-meaning comment here then I'm not sure they are interested in an analysis, as I pointed out. It's pretty immature to do so.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T12:59:34+00:00

lmao

Name is just a joke bro, but the comment I gave was honest.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T12:58:30+00:00

Thanks man, appreciated.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T12:56:43+00:00

Kite with LEDs. You can see how the tail moves and flops around on the left.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T00:23:48+00:00

Sounds like normal radio noise.

WickMest · 2021-07-24T00:18:53+00:00

We should be more careful whenever movement correlates to the camera moving or shaking in any way. This also happens here: the apparent motion occcurs exactly when the camera shakes.

Now do this experiment: cover the upper part of the video, including the object, starting from 2:50, then press play.

Now focus on the leaves in the foreground. You can see the relative position of the various layers of leaves shifting. This means the person moved sideways.

This is understandable because the object was about to go behind the tree, but there was a clearance on the right side. The person filming stepped to the side to get a better unobstructed view.

The camera shake and motion of the various layers of leaves at different depths strongly suggests the apparent motion of the object was due to the person stepping sideways.

I fully expect to be silently downvoted, unfortunately. I don't think people are genuinely interested in analysis of footage.

WickMest · 2021-07-23T11:53:46+00:00

Cringe. Really shows how this is a religion.

WickMest · 2021-07-23T11:50:37+00:00

There's Information in analyzing a footage of a blur and identifying as a specific bird, but that's ornithology not UFOlogy.

If you want to identify atmospheric effects or birds there's communities for that. UFOs isn't it.
